Monday Afternoon: Light on Water and a Heavy Tool

    The water in the fountain is so very beautiful. Praise the Lord for the generosity of the hardware employee.

    Gorgeous pictures. I love that fountain and the water fall. The water fall looks familiar – wonder if I’ve seen it before.

    Ooooh, so that’s a bolt cutter. Heck I’ve got one of those. Didn’t quite know what it was used for… now I know!
