The Calm Before The Storm


The lake is calm now...the skies are clear.
But...we are taking precautions as Hurricane Irene is approaching.

To all of you in its path....take care!

Wishing you all a safe and happy weekend.

    Thank goodness there IS a calm before the storms of life - the figurative and literal ones. It gives us a chance to pray and prepare. ;)

    Be safe!
