Seeing
 
 
Bartimaeus son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the roadside. 47When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

The eye sees only what the mind
is prepared to comprehend.

You must look into people
as well as at them.
                                                                ~ Lord Chesterfield
 
 
 
 
BIG snow (two feet) last Thursday!!!
On Friday, though, it was stunningly gorgeous!
 
On Saturday, Eileen (right) and I drove up to Vail to have lunch
with Sharron (left) and her husband.
 
Vail Pass on our way home.
They didn't get as much snow as we did!
 
 
You can see farther in the dark
than in the day.
