Moments with God
[#item_description]
Without much opportunity for clean up after the destruction of Hurricane Helene, Hurricane Milton made landfall in Florida last night.

Read More A Sure Foundation
Walking along a variety of trails takes me many places. One particular trail I love has me pass underneath some immense bridges.
