the best of what's around...

Where most kids grew up going on vacations to Disneyworld or the beach, I grew up taking vacations to beautiful vistas across the US: Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Yellowstone (twice), Rocky Mountain National Park, Glacier National Park, Banff, Canada... you get the idea.

Tack on to that the fact I spent nearly seven years as a Boy Scout (and yes, I am proudly an Eagle), you can begin to see why I have such a love of Mother Nature.

So, the first regular post series I am starting is Nature Pic Monday, where I will share whatever picture of Mother Earth astounds me that week.

I hope you enjoy and that, if you're stuck at your desk, this will provide a brief glimpse of the beauty God continually surrounds us with :)
