This past summer Dennis and Marie and Sandy and I went to the beach.... We had a wonderful cabin on the beach!!! We had a great time...... If we had gotten to the Outer Banks and found

these conditions, I would have..............But we did not....... These images and the next bit about Thomas Jefferson I copied form other bloogers around the world..... Google/blogger has a nifty feature that displays images that are posted on blog pages, be careful what you post, it might be seen by the whole blogger world.... I have a lot of fun watching it when I need to relax and do not want to read.. check it out at:

In the mean time here is Thomas Jefferson:

and his ten rules!!!

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.

Never trouble another for what you can do yourself.

Never spend money before you have earned it.

Never buy what you don't want because it is cheap.

Pride costs more than hunger, thirst and cold.

We seldom repent of having eaten too little.

Nothing is troublesome that we do willingly.

How much pain the evils cost us that never happened.

Take things always by the smooth handle.

When angry, count ten before you speak; if very angry, count a hundred.

Thomas Jefferson

So, thank you bloggers for sharing these thoughts and images.

May we have peace on earth, john

Please pray for my sister and 5 of her 6 children and their families who live in the San Diego area as they cope with the horrific fires of Southeren California.......... pray also for the many thousands of other people who are suffering with this nightmare.......... Thank you.... Peace, john
