Sometimes we look at sights in nature but don't really see. While hiking in the woods the other day, it became a realization that we need to open our heart and eyes to see the beauty of the simple things in nature with each season. There is so much order and purpose in His creation. God has given us awesome beauty in this world to see and enjoy... if we would but stop to see and feel it. Join us as this blog is about stopping to see the real beauty around us...to touch and feel it... "Through the Lens".

We spent the afternoon walking in the woods reflecting on the magnificent artwork of God.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name.

As we reflect on all the blessings God has given us, Gerri and I would like to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving.
