This week is a tough assignment. Sally asks who we are and what makes us a wonderful person. I can think of many things to describe myself, but to show that in a photo - not so easy. Here goes anyway.
I am caring.
This photo was taken this week at Dogwood Canyon, a beautiful nature reserve in southern Missouri.
There were dozens of waterfalls, trees, trout, and lovely bridges.
I love to travel thanks to my mom and dad who scrimped and saved every year to take us on a summer vacation. Even now our own little family loves to travel. I especially like nature and care about the future of our planet for the generations to come.
This photo was taken last week at our Bible School at our church.
I spend much of my free time as Sunday School Superindendant at our church and have done so for more than 20 years. I truly care about our children's religious education and I feel it is important for all our children to learn about God, and how to be good stewards of our church, the world, and every living thing. I know religion can be one of those discussions that is taboo, but I really belive the world would be a better place if every child grew up learning all the wonderful stories of the bible.
Thank you for stopping by! Please check out Sally's blog to see more.

Lovely reflection of who you are!
really beautiful spot with the waterfall! and nice to get to know about you!
Alice thanx for sharing a part of you with all of us. Kudos to you for passing on good values to the next generation.
The world could use more caring people and you're a great example for those children.
Amen to you! Wonderful post, and dedication.
A lovely blog post. The waterfall is so pretty - it looks an idyllic place. Thank you so much for dropping by my blog, hope you have a great week.
That waterfall is beautiful.. Is it close to where you live?
I think you did a good job representing who you are in pictures.
Lovely post! You are truly a special person to care the way you do. I just love your photos, too - both of them!!
Lovely post - along the lovely pictures!
Dogwood must be a place of pure bliss on a hot day. Lovely photos
Thanks for a wonderful post Alice. I too sometimes am reluctant to post about God. But since he has been so good to me this past year I can't help but not talk about him. I agree we need the bible, the pledge, and such back in the schools. Even in the best "religious" schools it is hard! Keep up the good work and I love the waterfall, looks so cool and inviting!
What a fabulous way to see yourself. I love that and I love the photos you shared with us of your sense of caring. And wow. . .20 years of managing the Sunday School program. That's devotion and a sense of dedication that I totally get!
Beautiful shot of the waterfall. Traveling is an excellent way to spend time together and learn as a family. I wish I had done more with mine.
What a lovely post :-)
That waterfall is beautiful. How great of you to be in a leader ship role at your church. You are sharing who you are so no worries about taboo. I am enjoying getting to know what everyone is all about in this group.
What a beautiful waterfall. caring about and working with children is a great way to spend your 'free' time!
