Count Your Blessings Monday


Marci has started Count Your Blessings Monday. So, today I'm sharing my blessing!







This is what I see virtually everyday as I'm running around town: Mount Ranier! Sometimes the clouds decide to visit the mountain making it impossible to see. We only live about two hours north which makes for a wonderful day trip. The trails are really fun and the views from up there are spectacular!! To the left, you'll see a much smaller mount - that's Crystal Mountain which has great ski slopes I'm told. (I'm not a snow skier so I just take their word for it.) This photo is actually what I see as I pull into our housing development. One of these days, I'll get a photo from another spot in town so you can see it without the tree smack dab in the middle!!

Even with the tree in the middle of the picture it is still breath taking. What an enormous blessing. In the LORD I take refuge. How then can you say to me: "Flee like a bird to your mountain." Psalm 11:1

Oh WOW.... I will take the tree with it!!!! What a beautiful view. I too would be VERY thankful.

When I worked in Cannon Beach, OR for 2 summers, I got to see Mt. Rainier.

Amazing view Paula. I would definitely call it a blessing.
I count my blessings every day since moving in this house. The Lord has given us a special place and we are content.
Another blessing is being so close to 2 of our grandkids and our son and his lovely wife. We only wish our other son lived closer than Aumsville , Oregon.

Beautiful view! And beautiful verses to go with it. Actually I didn't notice the tree until you mentioned it -- the mountain dominates the view.

Paula, thanks for the comment on my blog. Yes, the baptisms did follow a confession of faith!!!

I love the veiw of mt. Ranier.. I lived in Silverdale and Bremerton when first married and you could see it when it was clear and on the other side was the Olympics.. I miss those views.

I can't imagine having a beautiful view like that. As the others have mentioned, you are very blessed indeed.
