By the Light of the Moon

Hi Everyone,

I just returned from the country cemetery where my dad is buried. I read the local newspaper this morning and they reported that the cemetery had been vandalized.


God spared my family
Just one chip on the headstone


This is some of the sand and dirt from the concret flower pot they used to
cause damage to other markers
Like I said, minor damage to my family's stones, but
others were destroyed


We came back to town and visited with Craig county sheriff and under sheriff. I explained what I would like to see happen when they catch the culprits. He said that's the time to send the judge your statements. I agreed to be ready and willing to do it, so now it's a waiting game.

I think the Bible says to make sure your sins will find you out, so whoever you are, get ready to pay the penalty for your needless desecration of those graves. God does know everything. The wonderful thing is He forgives. I do too, but it just takes me a bit longer. 

While I'm about it, I'm going to share some gorgeous pictures of the moon I snapped a few nights ago. This is a more peaceful subject.


Taken from my front yard. The picture didn't do real justice to
the beauty of the white, shining orb.


Some clouds obscured the brightness 


Lighting up the clouds drifting close by.


We just don't appreciate God's handiwork enough
I'm guilty of this a lot


Now this is what they call the "money shot"
Didn't get no money though, but I'm sharing.

Y'all have a good rest of the week and.........................

Until Later,
Okie Girl @ Home

    1. It was Timpson Chapel. I have a lot of my Dad's family that is buried there. If you'll send me your Dad's name, I'll go back out and look for you. I'll take the camera just in case. Give me an idea of general area. Email is: lmil_lmil@yahoo.com

      Thanks for your kind comments about my blog.
