2/26/24 often
I ride by these red chairs so often; I can rarely resist taking a picture because they’re so inviting and the view is so beautiful
2/24/24 piper
A pied piper is someone who compels people to follow them. Here’s our very own pied piper, Barb Haley, ride leader extraordinaire! 💗
2/22/24 heavy
Heavy frost on the field at Fort Hunt park was beautiful- this poem captures it perfectly:Frost-Morning
The morn is cold. A whiteness newly brought
Lightly and loosely powders every place,
The panes among yon trees that eastward face
Flash rosy fire from the opposite dawning caught,—
As the face flashes with a splendid thought,
As the heart flashes with a touch of grace
When heaven’s light comes on ways we cannot trace,
Unsought, yet lovelier than we ever sought.
In the blue northern sky is a pale moon,
Through whose thin texture something doth appear
Like the dark shadow of a branchy tree.—
Fit morning for the prayers of one like me,
Whose life is in midwinter, and must soon
Come to the shortest day of all my year!
[Archbishop William Alexander]
