April 3, 2023 a thought for today, I rest, I rust, says the key. German Proverb

The first upload for yesterday was “outside”. I took several as Sweet Pea and I made the rounds for photo ideas. This one is the edge of Westgate Park. A person walking their dog....a beautiful “outside” day and one for a walk with a best friend. 

I am pleased with myself.....I got the Easter Lily dedications done this morning as well as the bulletin caught up to the past for a few more pieced of information. Most of the look up parts are done. So there isn’t much else on the agenda until more information comes in to me. 

I will try to get an early start parts of dinner. That will make the afternoon less of a hassle.

My second  upload for yesterday was “tools”. This is my Dremel-like tool and it’s parts...handy-dandy tool.

I think the photos of the day will be from the archives. I don’t have much time left in the day to go out looking. One of them I am going to use was just taken a couple of days ago and the subject is still right outside my window.

The weather is in its “normal” changeable move. To day is in between rain and high winds to the entry of a warm spell. 

The first upload for today is “something purple”. This is the second flowers to bloom in my yard. The first were some daffodils. I was surprised to see these little purple blossoms when I took a peek over the side of the porch. 

The word today is fear. Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world, Ralph Waldo Emerson.  Fear has many eyes and can see things underground, Miguel de Cervantes.   Fear is only as deep as the mind allows, Japanese Proverb. Fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil, Aristotle.  Fear makes us feel our humanity, Benjamin Disraeli. Where the fear is, happiness is not, Seneca.  Of all the liars in the world, sometimes the worst are our own fears, Rudyard Kipling. Fear always springs from ignorance, Ralph Waldo Emerson. To him who is in fear everything rustles, Sophocles.  Fear is the foundation of safety, Tertullian.   Present fears are less than horrible imaginings, William Shakespeare. The thing in the world I am most afraid of is fear, Michel de Montaigne. A man who fears suffering is already suffering from what he fears. Michel de Montaigne.  We promise according to our hopes and perform according to our fears. Francois de La Rochefoucauld. Mankind fears an evil man but heaven does not. Mencius.  Love is a thing that is full of cares and fears. Ovid.  The joys of parents are secret, and so are their grieves and fears. Francis Bacon.    

A second upload for today is “happiness”. This one is from the archives. The twins having a good time climbing with the moves of happiness and joy of motion in life. 

This is parts of two articles about the history of Port Columbus. On July 8, 1929 three thousand “onlookers, including Charles Lindbergh and Henry Ford, watched the first flights take off from Port Columbus Terminal”. There were economic troubles “early on due to the Great Depression” but it gained success when it was used by the US Navy in World War II. A new terminal was built there in 1958. That first flight in 1929 carried nineteen passengers, including Amelia Earhart”. The first architects were chosen by Charles Lindbergh. Some of the earliest flights “were a part of the Transcontinental Air Transport line, also known as the “Lindbergh Line.” The article mentioned that people would come to Columbus by train then fly to Oklahoma before boarding another train to get to Los Angeles... the entire trip from beginning to end took 48 hours. There were only a few small air fields on that trip where the plane could possibly land. The cost for the cross country trip was 16 cents a mile.  The article ended with this report “The original terminal building and hangars still exist on the south side of the airport, along 5th Avenue, and are in use and the former terminal has been restored and is used for rental office space, while the original hangars are still used for airport operations”.

I think I am making meat loaf for dinner tonight.  

Joy
