8Then he took curds and milk and the calf that he had
prepared, and set it before them;
and he stood
by them under the tree while they ate.

When you work you are a flute through whose heart
the
whispering of the hours turns to music.
Which of you would be a reed, dumb and silent,
when all else sings together in unison?

Five of us (from Painted
Toes) went to an alpaca farm
to paint on Friday ...
but we had too much fun playing and didn't paint!
All twenty-five alpacas had
been shorn last weekend
except for their topnots,
leggings, and tails.
These are the "working
boys."
Here are some of the
females drinking water that Hugh is putting in the
fountain.
Most are expecting
babies. The little baby on the lower left is only three
days old!
There she
is!
Tina Nocturna even took a
peppermint treat from my mouth.
(We almost dropped
it.)
We celebrated Carolyn M.'s
birthday.

Read about their alpaca
experience here:
The one-l lama,
He's a priest.
The two-l llama,
He's a beast.
And I will bet
A silk pajama
There isn't any

Vicki and I enjoyed many
yummy meals in Hawaii ...
... and some lovely
sunsets!

The difference between stumbling
blocks
and stepping stones is how you
use them.

5These twelve Jesus sent out with the following
instructions: "Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town of the
Samaritans, 6but go rather to the lost sheep of the
house of Israel. 7As you go, proclaim the good news,
'The kingdom of heaven has come near.'
