Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Hotel Life

.
Love staying in a good hotel. Someone makes the bed. Someone cleans. Someone brings fresh towels - - - and I don't even have to turn a finger!!

Here we are arriving in our hotel, getting ready to enjoy the amenities.

You know - - - like packing lots of people into the elevator. We look happy because we are on our way to eat - - - and we didn't yet know it was going to take hours and hours get our food. (There won't be any pictures of THAT restaurant on here!!!)

Oh and the fitness center. Let's not forget how much I enjoy my time there.

(FYI - - - said with HEAVY sarcasm.)

This time we even have a view. A room with a view. Who ever heard of that???

I wish I could tell you what these buildings are - - - -

but unfortunately, I'm clueless.

Here's the same building at night.

Isn't it beautiful?
