Back in the Saddle
I am pleased to say that we have returned home safely, although 24 hours travel is a bit wearing. I wanted to share some “looking up” pictures from Venice.
Siena, Italy
Perhaps the most spectacular cathedral I have ever seen, except for the Vatican, this church in Siena had a room with completely illuminated walls and ceiling called the Piccolomini Library. Enjoy.
Staglieno, Genoa
One of Europe’s most significant cemeteries, Staglieno is filled with amazing emotions about death captured in stone. Here are just a few examples.
Florence and Pisa
I am enjoying the experience of God’s grace found among those old architectural monuments erected to honor Him. The dedication to creating beauty and elegance in places of worship always bring me a sense of reverence. I am also enjoying the conversations around meals. Great discussions of serious issues about exegesis, history and culture. Soon…
Just some pictures
When I get to the point where my mind is numb from writing, I just work on photos. Here’s today’s effort.
