Having fun with Macro! My mother has a gorgeous yard with flowers and birds and insects galore! I spent several mornings wandering her yard...this little guy hopped right up to me as I had my morning coffee.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

All: Thank you for your comments...I appreciate them greatly! I'm back to work today in Dover, DE after my trip to Germany and my vacation to get reacquainted with the family. I'll begin to comment and respond more as things settle down...
Sorry to all...I haven't been commenting as much as I would like to lately. I'm a 9 to 5er again (actually more like 8:15 to 7:30 these days!!) Don't worry, I still see all of your wonderful posts, if only for a second.
