God speed

On the occasion of the inauguration of President Biden and Vice President Harris, with the inspiring and moving words of both the 46th President and the first youth poet laureate of America, Amanda Gorman, still resonating in my mind:
 

 

Congratulations America. Welcome back.
 

 

I hope you know how much you’ve been missed.
 

 

Happily all’s well with the world today.
 

 

Good luck and God speed.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Reward

On today’s Weekly Photo Challenge Krista asks ” What does reward mean to you?”

MachuPicchu

The answer is found in this gallery of photos taken after our six day trek to Machu Picchu in June 2013. Arriving in the early morning of the seventh day, with the sun’s rays illuminating a scene that can best be described as theatrical in its beauty, was a moment of pure magic and the beginning of a never-to-be-forgotten day of wonder and amazement.
