March 1, 2026 Quickthought: All You Can do

It can be a dark feeling but there is no shame in sadness. While we are not in the conflict zone, many friends are, many children, families and vulnerable people are.  And there is nothing we can do to help.  Wait, there is one thing, and probably the most important thing we can do.  Prayer is so much more than a last resort.  And so we pray.

BTW  Thank you for all the messages checking on us.  

 

February 14, 2026 Romantic Walk?

Probably not the ideal Valentines date for most but it's easier to imagine when you dont realize it's a holiday until you're out in the middle of the hike.  Not sure if it's not a big deal here, we're immune to the commercialization or, and this is most likely, the date just snuck up on us.  However, it's not the occasion but the company you're with, right?  And a post-walk stop at a bakery for a couple sweet treats was more than enough for us.  Happy Valentines Day everyone.
