What Could Be More Delightful?

 

Charlie Sue loves to sit on my map and watch the birds and squirrels. 

One thing led to another, as I mentioned before. The living room curtains were pulled back to open a close view of the rose garden. The coffee table, shaped like an aircraft carrier, blocked the window, so we slid it to where the hide-a-bed couch had been. The table was back-slidden, dormant, but still good for stuff on top.

Everyone loves an animal feeder. One is stationed outside the kitchen window, reminding me of the Midland Michigan demanding blue jay. Every morning it took a bath in our animal spa, shook off the bath water, landed on the food tray outside the window, and shrieked if no food was there. A dampened blue jay does not have the great coloring of a dry one. However, they are very protective of their friends and nests. 

To add to the fun, I put up some old and new bird feeder trays - outside the living room window. The rose garden came alive from us being so close to the flowers, Butterfly Weeds, birds, squirrels, rabbits, and other entertainers.

Yesterday I was broadcasting Acts 15, which will continue through Acts 27. I wondered, "How can I use what we already have in the chapel?" 

Computer box, check. Electrical outlet check. Screen - not at the moment. Stable tripod for camera, not yet. Internet feed - not quite yet.

Broadcasting the rose garden is relatively simple. The living room works as a second chapel, using the main computer for Zoom and Ichabod. Simply put, the Zoom file broadcasts live and converts that file into YouTube, which we accumulate on the front page - below -

When we moved to Phoenix, long ago, I learned that the local community college was one of the best in learning about computers - before Y2K - close enough to walk there. I took all the classes I could and became an adjunct teacher, which got me into the University of Phoenix in writing, religion, and computer training. That led to video and Internet worship, which I resisted until a camera arrived and Christina set up the altar.
