Photography
Hello my friends,
Due to the requests for an update, I have concurred, and shall give you a glimpse of my life in the past few weeks. For much is to be said, and more to show...PICTURES! :)
I am attending a photography workshop ( www.prizewinningphotography.com ) in San Diego, California :) I could stop there, presuming that you do realize how beautiful a place it is to photograph, but just in case, I'll give a small scope on the way of the photograhai. (I made that up..)
Prize Winning Photography is an amazing way to get a grasp of the concepts and features of SLR digital photography, I have learned more in the last week, than..uh than I've ever learned about photography.. And just in case that's not saying much, let me say that I would highly recommend this to every aspiring picture taker out there, who wants to know how to be effective, impactive, and and better at pic taking :)
So, without getting into all of the details of what I learned (you'll have to come to find out!) let me put a few pics up from the first week. Please Enjoy.
Due to the large file sizes of the pictures.. please click on the links to view. Thanks!
Just copy and paste the links provided..sorry I don't have time to make it ''professional''

I've also had several opportunities to share the gospel with people, just by people asking about what were doing, and me asking people to take their pics... There are souls to be reached for Christ. Blessed be the name of the Lord.

Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality
By Donald Miller
see relatedThe Past in Prospective
Since I have been faithful to neglect my blog, I doubt not that of the three that read this venture of mine have decreased to possibly one reader, but be of good courage, for I bring news and pictures.
Hardly knowing where to begin, I'll show a few pictures from Scotland, and move on to some random photos..
I went with my father and two sisters to Greenock, Scotland, to go and be a part of a conference hosted by www.sermonindex.net . God richly blessed us tremendously during that time of seeking His face, asking for a revival in our lands..

The Screwtape Letters (Gift Edition)
By C. S. Lewis
see relatedTHE U.K.
Wow, God is good!
The Lord has blessed me with another opportunity to come to Scotland for a revival conference ( www.revivalconference.com ), and to spend a few leisure moments in London. Actually, London is crowded. wow. But anyway, I loved being in Scotland, going to Edinburgh, Glasgow, and other cities, and soaking in all the history of these amazing places. I have taken over a thousand pictures, and I have been uploading loads to my facebook, but my sister Joy has been uploading my pictures to her xanga ( www.xanga.com/roniya ) so please visit her blog to see the pictures. :)

Ok, first off, I had a great post with all of these comments all prepared..and then good ol' explorer locks up on me. Horrors. So, in retaleation, I'm not going to comment or say much, except that God blessed my and my family as we traveled to Alanta for the revival conference, and it was great to see many hearts draw closer to Him, and experience His presence.
random shots..

I know it's a blur..but how often does one get to play with one of these?

Sudden Inspiration!
Nathan,
You have temporarily inspired me to post a post.
Since Israel, I have stayed busy doing all sorts of things...visiting grandparents in the Hurricane stricken Louisiana, and getting a little work in before I plan or do something that would drain the bank account again :) I've been blessed with the opportunity to go to Scotland this fall, where there will be a conference on revival....or actually, more like for revival :) I'm pretty sure we all need...about all the time. Yep, we can thank ourselves for that. We can thank and praise the Lord for The Cure from ourselves; Himself.
So, I still have a lot of pics from Israel, but I think you got the general idea of our trip :) I was so blessed to be there, and I would really like to go back!
In other news, the stock market is something that is nice to look at, as long as you have nothing in it...I'm thinking, buy into some company that's invented a way to run a car on air.
In the sports world; The STL. Cardinals have folded very nicely, pressed and ready for the off season shelves of anticipation. So long Cards, we'll see you when we see you. LSU College football looks good. Let's decide who the quarter back will be. It's like, having two generals telling the amy what to do, and the one always says something different than the other. Bad Chemistry.
Did you hear about the man somewhere in Texas that trained his German Shepherd to dial different numbers on the phone, and actually was having a heart attack, and his dog dialed up 911 and barked into the phone until the police and ambulance arrived. That's a wise man....on the part of training the dog anyway, why he had the heart attack might been the result of unwise decisions. Who knows.
The weather is perfect for camping, meaning, my family hope to camp this weekend, and I just might be able to post some pictures on this xangonian time taker.
Thank you for reading this post. If you have any side effects or unnatural behavior after reading, please consult your local German Shepherd.
Li La Tov.
Interpretation:
Good Night.
