Ahoy, You!
Most recently I read an "ing" post from my blogging friend,
Jo, from Three Stories High. I think the "ing" post format is fun and informative, so I thought I would launch my version here to see if you enjoy it, too.
Since I last posted, I have been:
 |
| Admiring my incredulous grandson Aron's Sea Robin fish he caught as his older brother Kenny is seriously fishing behind him off the coast of New York state, USA. |
 |
| Harvesting and sharing more plums and apples from our trees near Portland, Oregon USA. |
 |
| Crocheting a tube with size 10 cotton crochet thread and a 1/2.75MM crochet hook for the earpiece of my church receptionist friend's headphone. |
 |
| Celebrating that she says the headphone is now more stable and comfortable to wear. |
 |
| Traveling with a girlfriend for five days east along the Columbia River by Koberg Beach State Park, Hood River, Oregon, |
 |
| crossing the Columbia River from Oregon, going north into Washington state and looking at a [productive but controversial to some] windmill farm on the dry hills. |
 |
| Puzzling about how this could be called Rock Island Dam in such a landlocked part of southern Washington state. |
 |
| Liking the touch of early autumn colors at Sun Mountain Lodge where we stopped one day for lunch. |
 |
| Contemplating my lack of appreciation for taxidermy. |
 |
| Cheering the little chipmunk perched on the rock as he munched on some yummy morsel. |
 |
| Balancing near the railing to admire the view from the restaurant. |
 |
| Delighting in the Bear Foods store in Chelan, Washington. |
 |
| Resisting buying one of these practical but not needed by me totes. |
 |
| Missing my chance to try a gluten-free crepe because I had just eaten lunch elsewhere. |
 |
| Zooming in on his signature. |
 |
| Exploring the Bavarian Village of Leavenworth, Washington. |
 |
| Strolling eagerly into the gingerbread shop! |
 |
| Savoring every spicey fragrant yummy bit of this gluten-free gingerbread! |
 |
| Gawking at these pretty horsedrawn carriages before we headed back to Oregon. |
 |
| Swinging back at home as I appreciate the vibrant colors of autumn become more evident. |
Meditating through this transitional time in my life on this wisdom:
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 NKJV
Sending loving thoughts your way as I wonder, "What are your "ings"?
