Last week, my dad took a fall after first passing out, and I drove up to Ludington to be of support to Mom and Dad. When I arrived at the hospital, I never expected to see him in such a way. He had a huge black eye (very puffed up and almost swollen shut), 13 staples in his head, 5 stitches on his lip, a missing tooth from his plate, 3 broken ribs and other bruises on his face, along with being diagnosed with pneumonia. I felt so bad for him. He had no idea what had happened.
When I arrived at the hospital, Mom had been at the hospital all day with Uncle Bill and Aunt Dianne. They had left just before I arrived. (Their help and support was so appreciated!) When Dad finally got settled into his room, Mom and I went and got something to eat and then headed back to the house. Mom got into the house and I took a very fast drive down to the lakeshore to snap this picture of the sunet. I couldn't help myself; I just had to get it!
Just another beautiful portrait by our Creator. Thank You, Lord, for your many blessings for which we are so underserving.

So sorry to hear about your dad, Marsha! Hope he is healing well.
Beautiful sunset!
Oh, Marsha! What a GLORIOUS picture! Oh, thanks SO much for sharing that. I cannot say enough how VERY much I miss sunsets since moving into the mountains where there are none! What a gift you have given to me. I just sat and looked at it and praised the Lord. Oh, how I long to enjoy them daily like I used to in Indiana! Sigh...
So sorry about your dad. Is he doing better?
