Last Friday, 4/19/24, we were blessed with a 14th grandchild, a boy weighing 8 labs and 21 inches long. May God bless the child and his parents in raising him.

Beloved of the Lord
Jedidiah by name
May God bless and afford
Wisdom and godly fame

Know God’s salvation soon
And serve Him with fervor
For Zeal is a great boon
Mixed with truth and ardor

Beware of a false zeal
And man’s empty wisdom
Of pleasures that appeal
And every works system

Bind truth and love to you
A warrior for the right
A freeman, Francis, true
At peace, yet fit to fight

She said that she would prefer to go up on a steeper trail since coming down that way would be more painful on her knees.

So, carrying one pack with food and clothing and water, about 25 pounds, and carrying a second pack with her son and water, about 35 pounds, we started off. I record our progress with commentary and pictures at “Rainbow Falls Ascent“.
