Psalm 4
Beautiful morning just after sunrise on my back patio. I am enjoying the Peonies I planted several years back. They are actually 3 generation peonies. They were at my grandfathers farm in Indiana. When he died in in 1968 my mother brought some to our home in Ohio. When she died in 2007, I brought some of them to my back patio. Everytime I see this beautiful pink show, I am reminded of her. She too, love the outdoors and especially working with flowers. She definately had a green thumb.
Yesterday, I hiked 3 miles at Chestnut Ridge metro park. Of all of the metro parks close by, it offers the longest hill. It is not as steep or long as what you will fine on the Appalachian Trail but It is what I have to work with.
Today I have on tap some more honey-do jobs. Bringing some plants from the basement to the sunshine of the back patio. Hopefully, they survived. Then sweeping the living room and clothes. I have some equipment to put together for Adventure Camp this weekend and then another good hike. maybe 10 miles today.
God,
Thank you for this beautiful place to enjoy this NEW day. Be with me this day as I continue to prepare for this trip. Help me in all I do this day to honor you. Amen.
