Here we go.  This is my first, bumbling attempt at a blog.  I guess we will see just how well this goes.  As with most new attempts at journaling in my life, my guess is this will last or a few weeks or days, and then fade away, left by the wayside, abandoned for reasons unknown… unless you can count procrastination as a reason. 

The funny thing is, I spent more time this evening searching for and editing the perfect photo for my header.  The shot of the mountains that you see above is a photo I took about sunset while we were on our family vacation in Como, Colorado.  I set up my camera and tripod in an overgrown field at Camp Como, fighting of mosquitoes the size of my hand (ok, maybe they weren’t that big…).  As the sun set, the mountains turned various shades of purple.  It was worth the wait.

As I waited for the light to fade just the right amount, I was overcome with a sense of awe at God’s creation.  And to think, this work of his hands, this was made for me.  Overpowering thoughts cascaded through my mind as I sat in wonder at God’s majesty.  Simply amazing…

Update…
Since transferring my blog to this new domain, the picture in the header is no longer there. Here is the image:
