Thankful Thursday
I thought I would share a few thoughts about my Wordless Wednesday post from yesterday.
It could perhaps be titled ... "The Light at the End of the Tunnel".
Tomorrow is the first of May. Will it be a full speed ahead month? How are we ... am I ... going to approach it?
Is this tunnel making you feel like the issues of the day are pressing in on you and the resolve is a long way off?
Or is it one of "Thank Goodness April is done" Now on to other things?
There are so many ways to look at my photo. I'm just curious what your reactions are.
About the tunnel. Its called the Tom Lantos Tunnels (there are 2, one for each direction.) They were finally completed in 2013 and are the longest tunnels in our state of California, over 4000 feet of rock quarried road to get people through a mountain and a difficult part of Highway 1 along the Pacific Coast Highway.
It is located 15 miles from San Francisco and between my hometown of Pacifica and Half Moon Bay. The area is called Devil's Slide and that highway was closed often due to huge rock landslides and very unstable ground.. The scenery was gorgeous but the highway was always a bit sketchy. I drove that route often to go to places along the coast but truthfully I'm glad I don't have to do that anymore. I do miss the ocean scenery though.
My photo archives are so jumbled up that I can't find the photos of the Devils Slide coastline. Here are a few photos of our views of the Pacific Ocean just a mile and a half from our home. The coastline is so rugged and beautiful. Enjoy.
I am so thankful for all of these memories.
Thankful for those who built the tunnels to make traveling faster and safer.
Thankful for the gorgeous scenery that God created.
Always be Grateful
Always be Kind
