NEW! Check out Positively Active for updated links. Cloud gazing is one of my favorite things to do all year round. Learning the names of the clouds and cloud formations is not all that important, I just enjoy looking at and photographing them. The way the clouds radiated from a central cluster behind the tree was a special moment on a beautiful, sunny March day. "Now, if God made the clouds so beautiful, did He not mean us to gaze upon them and be thankful for them?” Alfred Rowland

After an almost yearlong break, there will be posts again to Be Active. Be Positive. In the upper midwestern region of the United States, March can be a season of change. There can be snow or ice storms followed by warmer days where the snow quickly melts, or a mild spring-like day can precede a late winter snowstorm. I love watching the first snowfall each year, but by March 1, I’m ready for the January snow and ice to start melting. From All that Dwell Below the Skies

1 From all that dwell below the skies, Let the Creator's praise arise; Let the Redeemer's name be sung Through ev'ry land by ev'ry tongue. 2 Eternal are Thy mercies Lord; Eternal truth attends Thy Word; Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore Till suns shall rise and set no more.
