The Checker

I just had to share one of the most magic moments of being in the mountains. This morning we awoke “in the clouds”. At 4000+ feet in elevation, we often find our view of Satulah Mountain is totally immersed in the clouds. This morning, however, the clouds were on top of us! It is really rather dream-like to be driving in to town and being able only to see about 30 feet in front of you. It caused everyone to take it a little slower and be aware of another of the myriad of faces of Mother Nature. For some reason, it just seemed quieter and more serene than usual, as well. When we visited one of the churches here this past Sunday, the pastor mentioned the blessing of living in this beautiful place. This morning seemed to me a perfect example of the awesome beauty of our new home town. Amen, indeed.
