San Francisco

While Tim was in Taiwan, I was in Canada visiting my mom in Saskatchewan. I flew home to Colorado Springs via San Francisco, and Tim's flight home from Taiwan also took him through SF. We met up there and were on the very same flight back to Colorado! The flight attendant worked it out so we could sit together! Nice!
Some shots of San Francisco from the air.....click on photo to enlarge it.

Morrison Academy, Taiwan

Tim's latest travels took him to Morrison Academy near Taipei, Taiwan.


Tim was struck by the beautifully maintained campus, including these cool trees.

Large library

High rise building houses the Morrison Academy faculty and staff; boarding students live in the smaller brown and grey complex.

Happy Mother's Day to my wonderful mom!

I was in Canada this past week visiting my 95 year old mother who is in the hospital and struggling with her health. We spent some precious times together and it was hard to say good-bye. I am so thankful to God for her. Happy Mother's Day, Mom! You are dearly loved and deeply appreciated.

Canadian Prairies




Nothing like those prairie skies!






Snow geese stopping off on the prairies before heading further north for the summer.












This is the farm where I grew up on. It holds many fond memories!

Easter in Colorado

Snow for Easter! A perfect reminder that our sins are washed whiter than snow because of Jesus' death and resurrection!
