Valentine Views

Happy Valentine's Day to one and all!

It was a beautiful sunny day here with an incredible blue sky.

We saw some lovely creatures out in the snow. Img_5298_2

They seemed to welcome the warmth of the sun as much as we did. Just soaking up some rays.

I had never heard the legend that Dawn mentioned in her Valentine post, but perhaps there is a bit of truth to that romantic notion. Lydia spotted a pair of red tail hawks carrying twigs and such to a cozy spot in the top of a tall tree. Love is in the air, indeed!

Today

  • Remember, O Christian soul, that thou hast this day, and every day of thy life: God to glorify - Jesus to imitate - The Angels and Saints to invoke - A soul to save - A body to mortify - Sins to expiate - Virtues to acquire - Hell to avoid - Heaven to gain - Eternity to prepare for - Time to profit by - Neighbors to edify - The world to despise - Devils to combat - Passions to subdue - Death perhaps to suffer - Judgment to undergo.

A.M.D.G.
