One thing Gerri and I have enjoyed during our stay here is to go to the pier in Fairhope and enjoy the sunsets. A lot of folks in the area congregate at the pier to watch and enjoy them…it seems to be the gathering place in the late afternoon.
Rather than being a bit wordy, we just wanted to share several of the pics with you.
In the parking area at the pier there is a fountain surrounded by a lot of roses, many still in full bloom.
The leaves here are not quite at peak, but still many are starting to fall. As we watched the sunset and reflected on the fall season, we so realized the order in which God created this universe. There may be a lot of chaos in the world, but when you see the sunset at the end of the day and realize the seasons of the year, you know God is in control and He has established order in this world.

For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1
Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time.

Very gorgeous. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments. Hope you guys are doing good.
DeleteThe sunset photos are glorious, Mike. I love that last one! Beautiful roses, too. And a good reminder that God is still in control. These days, we often have to remind ourselves of that.
ReplyDeleteLinda, thank you for your comments. Sometimes we just need to stop and see how God is in control by seeing the beauty of His creation and the way it sustains itself.
DeleteLove those sunsets. First one and the flag, fountain... gee, probably all of them. Oh, the roses are you self also. You have a gallery full of quality photography.!!! Thanks for sharing. Horst sends
ReplyDeleteHorst, thanks for your comments. Coming from someone who takes great photos like you, that is a high compliment. Take care...
DeleteAbsolutely gorgeous!!! Thanks so much for sharing. I needed to see a beautiful sky. Raining and miserable here in Canton, Ohio.
ReplyDeleteIt has been low to mid 70's all week and nothing but sunshine. It is easy to photo the sunsets from the pier as it sets on the ocean. Thank you for your gracious comments
DeleteWow---what a great sunset.... I love it... Took my breath away. I've been through Mobile many times (going from TX to FL) but have never spent any time there. What a great time to be there. Isn't it wonderful to see things blooming? Our Roses are gone until Spring.... Thanks for sharing. It brought a smile to my face for sure.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Betsy
