Letter "H" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 12 and Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures
This Week's Prompts: Starts with "H." A Favorite.
For James, Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures: I couldn't resist taking this shot of a couple of ducks. Wonder what's on their minds and what is transpiring here? This was on my 30 minutes a day walk, two blocks here from our house.
For Tom, "H"help.
For James, Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures.

Starts with "H": It will be the word, Heaven. When Heaven calls, I will go. Our Sunday morning Bible class now has over 150 members. In that class five of us have had a loose group with our ages of having reached a magic number 90.
This week Larry, the oldest, birthday in March, was called to Heaven before he could reach 91. His service was led by Charles, one of our class teachers. Larry had asked Charles to speak of the Lord's Prayer and to be specific on the relation of us to the Lord's kingdom coming and of the praise of God in that prayer. (Matthew 6:9-13 [click here for Wikipedia])

I have just finished my new Christmas present book on golf that purports to give the reader valuable playing tips and insider information.
Here is some more that I have gained through years of personal experience. I'm writing my own book, Better Golf: How to Help Your Game--Sage Advice From an Old Timer. Please note, this is my book, copyright and all. *.

I am writing Chapter 16 first. . .
The above is an excerpt from Chapter 16 written as a teaser for the book, a previous blog post on that I had written on January 6, 2006. I haven't made much progress on the book yet, I am waiting until we sell this large house and move into a Senior Living Place. My readers then seemed to think it would be a great idea. You can finish the short story intro to Chapter 16 by clicking here.
For Tom's choice, "Help": This is Mrs. Jim with our daughter and granddaughter, three generations. Mrs. Jim is a very giving and concerned lady, I have given her a middle name, Help.
An example, yesterday Mrs. Jim accompanied me to a visit with my Podiatrist about a sixth toenail growing on my big toe, left foot. Numerous times she would get up and open the door for someone in a wheelchair coming or leaving. A big help to them, even when some were being pushed by someone.
Oh yes, seven years later now, the granddaughter is a freshman in high school. Also, we have moved close to them, a ten-minute walk away. And the doctor cut out the toenail our although it will grow back again (no picture here, I forgot to take one).
Also note that this shows that many of our trees stay green all winter. That is a pedestrian bridge in the back, to cross the little stream.
