Sea Heart -Guest Heart Thursday

I posted this long ago--we were at Fort Stevens in Washington state.  This was taken inside on of the bunkers, looking out at the sea. 

We have had some bad news.  My husband has been diagnosed with cancer.  He has an appointment next week with the doctor to discover what our options are.  We are trusting God.  Our future in in His hands.

In the meantime, our hearts to yours.  Sometimes it is dark and hard times that our hearts shine the brightest.

Hole Heart - Guest Hear Thursday


I caught this heart at Fort Stevens in Washington State.  Fort Stevens is a mysterious place, full of underground passages and rooms--some of them are so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face. There is a feeling about it I often sense at The Abandoned where Sissy and I walk together. 

Here the sea's salt has rusted a hole, through metal walls, in the shape of a heart.  This is my favorite of all the hearts I've found.

Windows of Mystery

This seems to be a painting in which the cunning skill of a great artist has fooled our eyes.

But instead they are windows. Windows of mystery.

I found them near Astoria, Oregon. They are a part of the incredible ruins of Fort Stevens where an enemy submarine was spotted and fired upon during World War 2.
