I was coming home from a business retreat today, and caught sight of this rain storm a few miles ahead of me. I had to stop and grab a shot of this spectacular sight! Sometimes camera phones are a blessing ;-)

The Elemental Easter Egg
| |
|
|

I have always loved the simple beauty of an egg; nature's version of minimalistic art.
Eggs have always been considered a representation of new life. The reason why Easter and eggs are so closely linked was probably due to eggs being forbidden during Lent. During the strict Lenten fast of forty days no eggs were eaten. It was during Easter that the consumption of eggs resumed after the strict Lenten fast. Eggs were thus a mainstay of Easter meals, and a prized Easter gift for children and servants. Read more at www.theholidayspot.com/easter/history/icons/easter_egg.htm#G52lq0lsVuGlrqWJ.99
Happy Easter to all my ipernity friends! :-)

Marsh Pier across the Bay from Assateague Island

An amazing boardwalk pier leading from a neighborhood full of vacation homes and marshland to the inlet that lies between them and Assateague Island in Southern Maryland. This view faces the marshland and neighborhood.

Love is Patient, and is Kind...

...love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud,
doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way,
is not provoked, takes no account of evil,
doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth;
bears all things,
believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things.
Love never fails.
1Corinthians 13: 4-8
I wish all my ipernity friends a wonderful week full of love and good cheer!
Power Up!
