Point Park, Lookout Mountain, TN

The picture at the top of this page was taken at Point Park.

This past Sunday afternoon, we decided to go up to Lookout Mountain to see the beautiful colors at Point Park.   

Point Park was completed in 1905 to commemorate 
the "Battle Above the Clouds" 
as part of the Chickamauga-Chattanooga National Military Park.

Lookout Mountain is also where the Incline Railway is, although we decided to drive up rather than take the rail car.  

It was a beautiful day, with temperatures in the 70's and the sun's warm rays streaming through the trees.  We couldn't have asked for a better day to visit.  

These cannons are the original cannons used during the Civil War and preserved here on Lookout Mountain.

Since I am short on time today, I will just post a few of the beautiful pictures I took and write more and post more on a later date.

 

More to come later!

I Can't Help Myself!

I just had to do it! I went back to Hobby Lobby this afternoon and bought that Rooster I was telling you about. I not only bought this Rooster, but saw another one that I just had to have also! Then as I walked around the store, I noticed a Rooster Clock on the 50% off sale and a key hanger! Of course, those were added to my basket also! I'm hopeless!

I then made my way back to the Bead section again too because I forgot to get some crimp beads yesterday and then decided to go ahead and get the beads that I had put back yesterday!

I spent several hours once I got back home, making some new jewelry pieces. I really am going to look into opening a store!

Hello. My Name is Linda and I'm a HOPELESS ADDICT!

I think I need to spend the day in prayer tomorrow.

I hope you'll all have a wonderful Sunday. Go to church and worship the One who made you!

God bless each of you!

This is how my new items look on my counter and in my kitchen!

Sunday Mornings and You, Lord

Sunday Mornings! Don't you just love them? A time to refresh ourselves and a time to charge our spiritual batteries by spending some special time with the Lord.

Revelation 22:16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star."

I have two little books by Ruth Harms Calkin that I purchased many years ago while living in Indiana. I'm not sure if they're still available or not but I just love her simple and pure way of speaking to God as you would a friend, face to face over coffee. No pretenses, just purely open and honest conversation. The way it should be between God and us. Here's one I particularly like because it should be our daily desire as we go about our business either at home, the workplace or out in the world as we run errands.

May this be the prayer of each of us:

You who are

The Bright and Morning Star

Come in radiant splendor

And flood each shadowed crevice

Of my sullen heart

Until the world know

I've touched a Star.
