For the beauty of the earth,  For the beauty of the skies…

As I paddled this morning on the Wapsipinicon River the first two verses of an old familiar hymn came to mind. “For the beauty of the earth, For the beauty of the skies…” seemed appropriate. From the golden oak leaves to the thousands of grackles calling and flying, to wood ducks doing their best to sneak into cover without flight… it was beautiful this morning.

I will share some photos here. To see more, click on this link:
