"This is the END. I am going. I am leaving NOW. GOOD-BYE!"


Very dramatic that, but I thought Bilbo's party speech would make a fitting title for my last blog.

Taking a walk around the Park (the State Park, that is).

This will be my final update. In summary, I have gone out into the wild world, had adventures, made my way back home, and now I'm preparing for a new one. God is leading me onward and I probably won't be blogging for this season (but feel free to contact me; I'd love to catch up with you!). After filling out lots of applications, being interviewed, and praying, I am now at the next step. God has given me a peace about returning to Grand Junction! I am to be an educational interpreter at an elementary school in the area. I just finished my first full week and though it is still overwhelming, I'm SO excited about the people who are my co-workers. The kids are great and I'm looking forward all the perks of being in Colorado. I've already started to enjoy them --as you can see from my pictures. And that's me in a nutshell. In closing, I pray that God grant you peace and wisdom in your own lives. It is an adventure to follow after Him and be a part of His grand plan.

Joy is watching a Border Collie fulfilling his purpose.

“Surely you don’t disbelieve the prophecies, because you had a hand in bringing them about yourself? You don’t really suppose, do you, that all your adventures and escapes were managed by mere luck, just for your sole benefit? You are a very fine person, Mr. Baggins, and I am very fond of you; but you are only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all!”
"Thank goodness!" said Bilbo laughing, and handed him the tobacco jar.
