Fall's First Sunrise

Work has kept me quite busy and tired. But I am definitely getting into the swing of things and actually feeling comfortable with it. I cannot be more thankful with the great people I have been blessed to work with.

My dad had to take his last week of vacation this week so I was able to get three days off work. Five days in total I was off work and I can tell you right now it was wonderful. Despite my allergies wearing me out.

Fall is my favorite season, even though I get such a bad head cold. There's something so amazing about the smell of the falling leaves.
Last Saturday I woke up before the sun even began to rise-- I just couldn't stand being "indoors" much longer so I took off for the back field. As you can see, the sun rise was spectacular. Notice all of the forest fire smoke in the air over the mountains, creating such a gold- and pink-ish look. Our valley has been hazy for the past several weeks and we are in need of rain. Beautiful weather, just too much dust!

So for the last adventure of the MacLennan Family Vacation of 2012, we stayed in a cabin up in the mountains and out in the goonies. Seriously, no electricity, no running water... An outhouse, people. No, I'm used to outhouses... Sort of.
Anyways, more pictures to follow. I'm not sure when, though, as I'm heading back to work bright and early in the morning. Prayers would be greatly appreciated as I am not feeling very well and nervous about being too tired. God is my strength. I shouldn't forget that.

A Closer Look

It was one of those days I just took my time taking photographs. I took my time trecking through the (knee-deep!) snow behind the house, deep within the forest, looking for the special little details created by my God and Saviour. These tiny little details keep me in awe of His majestic beauty. Enjoy.



plant life indoors gives the whole house a wonderful aroma. and seeing my siblings so excited over the tiny little seeds popping up out of the soil puts a smile on my face.



i had to hold this one up (as you see my fingers in the upper left corner) to get a better shot of the bottom of the pine needles. again, i am in awe over the tiniest details in life!

 And ending this post with a shot of the glorious details of tree bark. One word: Beautiful.
