Planting Progressing

Here is a photo of the plantings that we completed this past week on the lake side of the house.  With Dave’s help we completed foundation plantings at the rear of the addition which should look even better when they get a bit of additional growth on them.  The irrigation is all installed so now I can sit back and just watch the plants grow.  Also, yesterday our crew did some additional work on my storage room and added a work bench which will be most handy for working on small jobs.  It is great to have such wonderful help with my projects.  They do a great job and turn it out quickly.

On Monday I will be leaving on a cruise, visiting the southern Caribbean with daughter Sue.  She will be serving as nurse on the ship so I will be staying with the medical people during the trip.  I was thrilled to get a call that my good friends Bud and Anne will be joining us.  They will spend the night with me prior to the trip so we can travel together to the port.  During the eleven day trip we will be visiting eight ports, several of which I have not previously visited.  It is always a delight to take cruises with Sue.  Bud and Anne are also a fun addition to our travels.  Your prayers for safe travel and good health are always appreciated.

As I was reading about the greatness of God today in Psalm 48, the final verse in that chapter was a great reminder to me of his goodness and mercy.  “For that is what God is like.  He is our God forever and ever and he will guide us until we die.”  That is a reminder that I need to stamp indelibly upon my mind, seeking his guidance in what ever I face!

Have a blessed weekend!

Love to you all,

Chuck
