Another week gone, and another series of posts handed over in
triplicate to the folks at iron mountain to be hauled via armored car
to the hillside bunker for safe keeping. No apologies for the lack of posts....just not enough time lately as this year has been busier than most.
1.
Friday is for photos: This series comes to you courtesy of a previous Napalm/bjnotbk camping trip.
This is perhaps the most manly fire I have ever seen in my entire life. The picture does not do it justice.

The reason we choose this trail was the huge waterfall at the end of the hike, over 50 feet high and very wide. We were lucked out because there had been quite a bit of rain before our trip which made the falls spectacular.
It wasn't all fun and games though as we paused for a moment of silence to honor the unknown hiker.
If you like great photography make sure to visit Steve Mckoy's Friday photos here [link] and Joe Thorn's here [link].
Want
to see your photo published here? Submit all family friendly photos to
bjnotbk@gmail.com for consideration. Please note that I reserve the
right to publish or not publish any submission. Fluffy, Heather of the
Hills, I received your photos so be watchful as they should appear next
week.
2. The weather has been insane here this week. Early on we were in the 70's then we dropped down into the low 30's. One day we had torrential rain and tornadoes. What next?
3. What are you reading? Napalm loaned me a book on John Newton, the man who wrote Amazing Grace, and it is a fantastic read.

4. What are you listening to? I have been listening to the Jars of Clay redemption songs album and would encourage each of you to give it a spin if you haven't heard it. This is my favorite song from the Album as it sums up the good news of Jesus.
5. Weekend plans anyone? We are celebrating L's 3 year birthday this Saturday at the Zoo. I love the Zoo and think I am as excited about it as she is. Mom is incredible as she has been planning this for some time. Hopefully the weather will be nice?
6. Thanks everyone for reading bjnotbk this week. My prayer is that
you will be entertained and encouraged or challenged each time you stop
by. I am also praying for you, my readers, that is, so be encouraged
in knowing that no matter what someone, somewhere is praying for you.
Now go read your Bible, love your family, lover your neighbor, get
outside, and love Jesus!
