Snippets from this Past Week Here are a few photos depicting life these days… This scene captured my heart…I feel it shows the essence of this pandemic…isolation. This young man sitting alone under the tree…contemplating these crazy times I’m sure. Our online church services, including taking communion at home. Learning to use new technologies…Zoom became a popular connection tool. These are my wonderful bookclub friends meeting on Zoom. We use Zoom to connect with our two sons and their families too. Sadly, this fresh milk is going down the drain on my sister-in-law’s dairy farm in Pennsylvania. Evidently there is an over supply of milk due to the massive closings of schools and restaurants. Photo by sh Picnic areas, playgrounds, and gathering spaces fenced off. Cool Blue and his babe Lil’ Oaty sit on our deck railing watching children walk by on the sidewalk that leads to walking paths and ponds in our neighborhood. The Teddy Bear movement is making a bear or stuffed animal visible for children to hunt for while going for a walk. Signs of spring and hope!…daffodils recently seen on my daily walk. …and some bright color crocus’ too. Photo by ba Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10
