Remnants, Memories

This is an abandoned home or inn nestled into the Gap of Dunloe in Ireland.  It was grand in size, and must have been a fine place in its heyday.  I love places like this; not sure why, but ruins always interest me more than perfectly preserved houses.  I don’t know who lived here; I wish I did, but someone remembers them and tells fine stories about good times spent within these walls.  Slainte, Lisa

P.S.  Moral of the story?  None of us are perfect; all of us have “crumbly bits.”  But “do not lose heart.  Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.”  (2 Corinthians 4:16) Hope indeed.  🙂

Pretty Cool Rocks, Part Two

Bathsheba, Barbados is a coral island filled with lots of cool but rather sharp rocks.  And so, we were compelled to take lots of pictures of them, and now share them with you.  If you like rocks, you’ll like these.  If not, ask yourself….rocks, what’s not to love?  😉  Have an awesome day, Lisa

Wave Upon the Shore

The breaking of a wave cannot explain the whole sea.

Waves come and go; they crest high and then they crash onto the shore.  Yet I never grow tired of watching them, listening to their roar drown out my worrisome thoughts.  Waves help me hear God’s voice; in fact, I believe that God’s voice sounds a lot like the waves.  “…and His voice was like the sound of rushing waters.” (Revelation 1:15b)  Pretty awesome.  Have a blessed weekend, Lisa

St. Lucia has some pretty awesome volcanic rock formations, and as you know, I love rocks.  So here are some of my favorites.

The Keyhole

The Bat Cave

The Pirates of the Caribbean archway (yes, there’s no picture here, as our camera’s battery selected this moment to die out.  But it was really, really cool!)

And the Two Pitons (giant  volcanic rock mountains that my husband says he would love to climb someday 🙂  )

The roads here twist, turn, and climb, climb, climb.  Exciting island with much to see.  But sometimes things are easier to see by boat, which being on the water, is always my favorite way to go.  Blessings on your day, Lisa
