Over the past couple of days we have had rain, ice, sleet, and snow. It is really neat, until you have to get around in it. But then, it is not too bad. We have cars to drive around in. I cannot imagine the pioneers and folks from long ago hiking through the ice and snow to go very far, but they often did. Even riding a horse would be very different than a heated car sheltered from the elements. There are many things of yester-year to be admired, this is not one of them for me.

 

There is a point to be made. Those of us who live in the USA often take for granted the many blessings and comforts of life we enjoy. We ought to use these blessings to serve God and fellow man; and be thankful for them.
