Vestry Graduate

I am no longer part of the Vestry at Christ Church Norcross. I served my full term as the Buildings and Grounds liaison. It was three years. There were a lot of items to deal with over the years. But the effort wasn't the work. It was the responsibility and knowing that I wasn't doing enough. I think most people get that feeling with obligations. Maybe not. I am sure the time and responsibility will be quickly reallocated. When I signed on I figured I would learn something. Now I am thinking about what I learned along with the hows and whys.

Pics from Around Town (Duluth GA)

Some random pics from the last few days. --My metal roof is now installed. Quite durable and breaks me out of the stupidity of having an asphalt/fiberglass shingled roof. Many years in the thinking/planning. Now done. --A nasty looking black coyote in the back yard. He is looking for the many deer fawns this year no doubt. He can smell them in the back yard. I see them everyday. --Burlwood. Part of the sawmill fun. A white oak tree we dissected has a number of nice burls. Great for turning into bowls on a wood lathe. --Some of the deer friends I see every day. --Grace and Jewel posing for a photo. --A red shouldered hawk out from my office --A Norfolk Southern crew change in Duluth GA. They occasionally do crew changes in Duluth. Nice to see it with a Union Pacific lead loco.
