Our walk in nearby Grabill IN took us along the path through the prairie grasses and wetlands.
It was quiet except for the rustling of grasshoppers that welcomed our company.
Butterflies flew silently around us. The sound of breezes through the leaves
of shrubs and small trees were the only other sounds except for our conversation.

I was just reading this psalm the other day aloud and meditating on our glorious Lord and the work of His hands. These photos are serene, lovely. Makes me want to be there taking a walk with you. Now, of course, I also want to know just why the day was strange. You can't leave us all hanging.
ReplyDeleteBlessings~
