101 year old friend Velma

We had the privilege of meeting one of our older friends here
The other people in the picture besides me are the folks that have been
good to pick us up and take us to meetings. Simon, Karen and Addie Bell. Simon is from Australia, Karen from Canada, Addie is the only American citizin in her family! Her Sis and Bro were both born in other countries. Velma just turned 101, she worked in Social Security when it was first established. She is still very alert, knows more about current events than I do! Amazing lady.

Look at the red so gorgeous

Some dear Friends

Here are a few people we have been having fellowship with on Sundays.

Shenandoah National Park

We were so disappointed when we started out, we could hardly see anything but things got better. There was even snow in the higher areas.

Notice the fog

Art work in capital dome.

Thomas J. paid the artist to make
his hands look the biggest in the painting
to signify he had the biggest part in writing the constitution
look at his right foot, he is stepping on the other mans
foot, he also asked the artist to paint it that way.
He had quite a sense of humor!

Pilgrims arriving to America

Painting runs around dome

The first artist to start painting this
fell off the scaffolding and died a month later.
Took two other artists over a 50 year time period to finish
depicts the history of america.

This is a painting, but looks like a carving
