“Go, gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me; neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. My maids and I will fast likewise. And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish!”   Esther 4:16

"Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans”.  Proverbs 16:3

Ultimately, our success or failure is in the hands of the Lord.  If His will is for us to succeed, we WILL succeed.  If what we are going to try to accomplish is not in His plans for us, we will fail.

I had always wanted to try ziplining, but the opportunity never presented itself.....until my daughter’s paid for Mark and I to do it during our honeymoon!  So, we made plans and headed to the mountains in Western North Carolina where we would zipline and do some site-seeing.

The Lord blessed our trip with safety and we had lots of fun!  I was worried about going too fast and not being able to get myself stopped before crashing into the instructor.  There were several stations to complete on the beginner lines.  It was so nice zipping along through the trees.  I did feel like I was flying at times!  I’m pretty sure that I would not be strong enough to do the zipline now with my osteoporosis.  So I’m glad I had the opportunity to go when we did!

"Life begins at the end of your comfort zone" – Neale Donald Walsch

031325 Night Ride

We rode the bike to Ilene’s for supper.  After supper, Ilene and I cleaned up the dishes and the kitchen.  Then we played games until around 7:30 when we got ready to go home.  The sun was just beginning to disappear.  It was a lovely sunset!

031425 Thom-A-Lex Park

We rode over to Thom-A-Lex Park.  I took some pictures and we used the restroom before heading home.  We stopped at the new Timber Creek Trading Co on Midway School Road and looked around and spoke with the guy who owns a wood mill and works in the back of the shop.  Nice guy!  Lots of unique, handmade items to buy.

We were only gone for a couple of hours and traveled just over 31 miles.  Just enough to get out on the bike for a little while.

While we were out and about, I noticed some signs of spring as some of the trees were blooming.
