What a glorious day it's been! The sun was shining, the birds were singing and the daffodils have emerged from their winter hibernation. To top it all, I managed to get out this afternoon for a round of golf. Fresh air, exercise, good company and spectucular scenery (shame about the golf, though). No wonder I'm cheerful today. How about you? Anything good happen you'd like to share with all of us? Let's spread a little sunshine ourselves.

sweetstuff - it may be too late to offer a shoulder to cry on, but I do hope you met your deadline.
section hand - ONLY 3 miles to the summit? Wow! Good for you! I'm surrounded by some fairly serious mountains, and get up and down them when the weather is good, but they pale into insignificance when compared to Mount Scott. But it's always worth the effort when you get to the top, especially on a clear day. Isn't it just wonderful to have your feet planted on terra-firma whilst surveying all below? Praise God for his wonderful creation (and our health to enable us to enjoy it).
Everyone else - thanks for making me even more cheerful on this, another glorious spring day. My prayers for comfort to those of you who are experiencing difficulties or pain.

I was so intrigued by section hand's account of his stroll up Mount Scott I just had to check it out on the map. At 8,926 feet that equates to just over 2,740 metres. I know the USA doesn't use metric measurements, but to put it into perspective, the highest mountain in England (UK) is Skiddaw, at just over 3,000 feet or 931 metres. Everest is 8,848 metres (29,028 feet), McKinley is 6,194 metres (20,320 feet) and Logan is 5,951 metres (19,524 feet). Mount Scott is a serious mountain, folks! Respect!

It's been spring here as well; crisp, sunny and cold. Tonight the clocks go back an hour which means we lose the dark wintry nights and can go for a walk after dinner. The down-side of that is that soon morning sunshine will flood the east-facing bedroom and wake us up earlier and earlier as spring goes into summer. Seeing as we are both owls, 5 a.m. wakening is NOT for us! So, I've gone into town today to order new curtains with black-out linings, and I'm going to get a matching bedspread and cushions made as well, so the bedroom will be transformed, and we can stay snuggled in bed till a respectable 7 a.m. Thank the Lord for spring and summer!

For me it is a glorious day when I wake up and know that I am alive. No matter what the weather is liek at least I can feel it. There is so much sadness and hurt in this world that we have to get satisfaction and glory through the little things in life. I hope that every one takes this to heart. No one is promised any tomorrows and we should live and help others like this is the last day here.
