Leisure Time
I've been an avid reader since I was a young child. I was one of those children who asked my parents to read to me at bedtime every night. As an adult, my motto is one more paragraph, one more page, one more chapter. Who am I kidding, finish the book and drink more coffee tomorrow morning...
As my mother declined, I kept buying books but did not notice I was not reading them due to less free time and increased responsibility. As August heated up this summer, I began reading again. It's been a nice respite from the heat and humidity.
A few pages to go before I finish Mornings on Horseback by David McCullough and Anne Graham Lotz's Book Jesus in Me. I finished The Veil by Blake K Healy and Killers of the Flower Moon & the Birth of the FBI by David Grann.
I will be vacationing in Colorado later this month with my sister-in-law. Flying is our mode of transportation because she does not want to drive 1000 miles in my VW Beetle from the Houston area to southwestern Colorado. She claims she doesn't want to go on a road trip with anyone, anywhere, in any type of vehicle, so maybe it's not my driving or car.
Hopefully, we will see beautiful fall foliage as well as moose and elk. Sunrise in the Rockies, sunset in the Rockies, pure bliss!
The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
Now along with my Bible, what books will I pack?
