Is Modesty an Issue?

Modesty has been a topic we have been discussing in our house a lot lately. I am convinced that "the world" has no idea that they are running around naked! I am also sad to say, that many Christian's have no idea either. (It reminds me of the story of the Emperior's New Clothes, someone needs to tell them!) My son, Matthew shared the following link with me. I would love for you to post your comments on this issue.

Virginia Trip Part 2

Wallops Flight Facility. This is a NASA flight test facility on Wallops Island, VA.



"Geek" in Space! (Notice "The Hat". He doesn't leave home with out it!)







The entrance to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. My NEXTEL worked in the tunnel 100 ft under water, but doesn't work at Walmart in Auburndale!


High Cotton!





The Lighthouse on Assateague
Island.








We came upon this sweet B & B when we were in Chincoteague, VA. Marguerite Henry actually stayed here while writing the book "Misty of Chincoteague". It made me think of my dear friends in Alturas.
My car on the ferry. It was a 2 1/2 hour ride to the mainland.

Our Trip to Virginia and the Outer Banks










The "Geek" and his sidekick arrive on campus! We loved Regent University. The campus was beautiful and the Open House was a delight.
This is just one of the many beautiful buildings on the campus.










Fall colors! Yeah!

I finally got to see the wild ponies!





Another state to add to our collection!



Sometimes their is just nothing more to say!

I love these boys!

Yorktown Battlefield. God's hand was definitely in the events that unfolded here.









The Wright Brothers Monument at Kitty Hawk, NC.




The boys bought some really cool kites at Kitty Hawk. They flew them on a huge sand dune at Jockey Ridge.









The battleship tour was so cool!







Matthew being Matthew!











Andrew being Andrew!





Gotta love the pig!
