The Kneeling Camel
The camel at the close of day,Kneels down upon the sandy plain,
To have his burden lifted off,
And rest again.
My soul, I too shouldst to my knees,
My soul, I too shouldst to my knees,
When daylight draweth to a close,
And let my Master lift my load,
And grant repose.
Else how canst I tomorrow meet,
With all tomorrow's work to do.
If I, my burden all the night,
Doth carry through?
Else how canst I tomorrow meet,
With all tomorrow's work to do.
If I, my burden all the night,
Doth carry through?
The camel kneels at break of day,
To have his guide replace his load.
Then rises up anew to take,
To have his guide replace his load.
Then rises up anew to take,
The desert road.
So I shouldst kneel at morning dawn,
That God may give my daily care,
Assured that He no load too great,
Will make me bear.
So I shouldst kneel at morning dawn,
That God may give my daily care,
Assured that He no load too great,
Will make me bear.

We should check on the Eagle Web Cam today, It won't be long until things will begin to happen up there, it was a pleasure to watch them last year until their problems came up and then it was sad..

Do you think that a little hot Tea or Coffee would help us to get off to a better start, I think that it would and they are both ready, hop on in here and sit a spell and see if you can make me smile. You have many times in the past. And I especially need it this morning. Dad

. We are seeing another warm morning and it makes me smile. It is 53 here in the Tennessee Valley at 3 A.M. and again we are supposed to have more of that good sunshine today. This does help us all to feel better. I do feel like getting out and see what I can find that needs to be done.

We had a visit with Mary's doctor yesterday morning, We are hopeful that the things that he changed will be helpful. Mary and I both have good doctors and we do trust and appreciate them. I have not talked to
Mary yet this morning, when I do if there is any changes I will let you know. I am going to let her sleep a little later this morning. Dad.

Keep your eye on the webb page above, as Tomato season draws near here in The Tennessee Valley we will be showing lots of interesting things. We will be installing the cam near the garden next week.
.
Here are my thoughts for this Friday.
..
" Ceremonies are different in every country, but true kindness, politeness and Love for others is everywhere the same ,in all countries around the world."
.
And this,
.
" Keep your enthusisams, , and forget your birthdays--formula for youth."
.
These two different thoughts are from Apples of Gold.
.
I am going to let this be it for today. I do wan't to come back on Saturday if you will let me. We hope that all goes well for you today. Thanks so much for all your comments. Why do you even read this when there are so many good things that you could be reading ? But I do Thank you because you do. Sending love to all of you.
