To Make His Glory Visible

Here's the marvel: that the self-contained

And all-sufficient triple Unity

Which for untold eternities had reigned

Complete in its own pure simplicity

Should will unnecessary worlds to be.

And yet his mind was steel, his purpose flint:

He struck off sparks of flaming ecstasy

And called the stars by name. The thing he meant?

To make his glory visible. He sent

Forth pulsing space-time-matter-energy

Which danced in pirouettes as on it went.

Just one thing more was needed: eyes to see

And skin to feel, and mind to comprehend.

He called it Adam, and there made an end.

Hudson, Wisconsin

The town of Hudson, Wisconsin is on the Minnesota-Wisconsin border, along the St. Croix River, a little more than an hour from our home.  As you can see, we live in the Lakes District. :-)

Kevin had to do an inspection there the other day, so after the inspection we spent a little time down along the river. And boy, was it a windy day!! (like 40-50 mph wind gusts!)

 The beautiful park along the St. Croix River

The beach is missing!

 No one was having a picnic lunch. You'd have to nail down the food!

 

They've saved the best seats for us!

 

 As you can see, I was fascinated by the wildlife.

We did get 'downtown,' but the river's edge was much more exciting.

 Geese and Ducks, hanging out together.

 The fam - hoping the wind will die down so they can go for a cruise.

 Walking against the buffeting wind to get out into that beautiful water

 Kevin wondered if this was a talking tree.

Wisconsin statehood - 1848

'Mom, are we almost there??'

P.S. Is anyone else having trouble with their Google Search box not working?
