It is the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross.
The gift of salvation came at a great price.
It was a good day for a walk around the lake. I had to stop and get a photo of this sign (pictured above). It seemed so mundane compared to the signs I saw frequently in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina (pictured below). It has been over a year since I left the warmth of South Carolina. Even though we are back in the middle of the country, I still look for alligators when I am around bodies of water of any kind. It just became a habit while I lived there and it has continued. I will admit that I really miss the warm weather and being near the beach. Maybe someday soon I will have a home with a view of the Rocky Mountains. While it may not have the feel of the ocean breeze, the front range gets plenty of wind. I can still get a sense of hurricane force winds even though we are far from the ocean. Maybe it will make me as tough as the cowboys. Be sure to celebrate tomorrow's feast with great enthusiasm.
