This was the sunset this evening as I stopped by the big field near Jackson Bottom Slough. What a gift it was. I worked at the county jail this afternoon. This was a dramatic change in scenery only ten minutes after leaving confinement.
It makes me appreciate freedom.
God's speed.
Yes indeed Mike - simply breathtaking.
ReplyDeleteGeoff - thanks for your comment!
ReplyDeleteNice colors.. I never understood why some people think crime pays, freedom is so good and is the best payment one can have.
ReplyDeleteHi Mike,
ReplyDeleteBoth are wonderful. I can imagine it was a dramatic change. It must certainly put perspective on things. Now I'm especially glad you got to see it.
George,
ReplyDeleteThank you! Well said about crime not paying. I often think about that when I'm with an inmate. When we're done with our time together I get to walk out of the building, hop on a motorcycle and ride home. Truthfully though, there's a fine line between having freedom and not.
Hi Kari,
It truly does put perspective on things with the two extremes. I sometimes wish that I could take people in with me to hear and see what what I hear and see. And the opposite is true too. I wish I could take some of those mixed up guys out to experience life without depending on drugs and/or crime. Whoa, I'm getting a little too serious. :) Thank you!
I miss my big sunrises and sets Mike. Thanks for posting this. Now that the trees are bare it's a little less closed in up here on the mountain. But I have to say I'm thankful for having had the sun and for having the forest now! God has givin me a chance to take in the beauty of all His works!
ReplyDeleteTRULY a gift....gorgeous!
