Thank you for the post. For more on John Wesley, I would like to invite you to the website for the book series, The Asbury Triptych Series. The trilogy based on the life of Francis Asbury, the young protégé of John Wesley and George Whitefield, opens with the book, Black Country. The opening novel in this three-book series details the amazing movement of Wesley and Whitefield in England and Ireland as well as its life-changing effect on a Great Britain sadly in need of transformation. Black Country also details the Wesleyan movement's effect on the future leader of Christianity in the American colonies, Francis Asbury. The website for the book series is www.francisasburytriptych.com. Please enjoy the numerous articles on the website. Again, thank you, for the post.Freebornghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07917567381835495780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-45826224722130985032015-10-29T09:57:55.777+00:002015-10-29T09:57:55.777+00:00I thought you would like to know that I had some t...I thought you would like to know that I had some tomato and red pepper soup yesterday...and thought of you Alphie!Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-7323561622858266772015-10-29T09:56:15.495+00:002015-10-29T09:56:15.495+00:00Well they marry young in the backwoods of Washingt...Well they marry young in the backwoods of Washington State!

Normally I do just what you said - stand strong in my beautiful (?) self - but sometimes it does get to me that I won't ever have the chance to look back on decades happily spent with the same person, through ups and downs, like my parents or Chubb and Dot can do, or indeed Neil and Shirley.<br /><br />Neil, you're right of course, neither of us planned for our marriage to end that way (or to end at all). In my lucid moments I know all this, but sometimes I get a bout of sadness over it all.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-1212514851616865572015-10-29T03:44:00.870+00:002015-10-29T03:44:00.870+00:00Happy Anniversary to Dot & Chubb, you and Shir...Happy Anniversary to Dot & Chubb, you and Shirley and to my Dave & I.

You are a stranger to me, but from what I have seen on Neil's pages I can see that you are a lovely, kind person with integrity and honesty - much needed values in our world. Life has dealt you some undeservedly hard things, but it is not because of any failure on your part; bad things, sadly, do not discriminate in whom they come to.

The fact that we are still here to tell the tale is enough. The curve mirrors a bend in the river called Jenny Hurn for the river is just a few metres to the right of the camera's position.

Suzanna's is the more interesting story, as she was the 25th of 25 children herself and bore 19 children of her own to Samuel, nine of which (or perhaps, more properly, of whom) died in infancy.<br /><br />As ever, I remain yr obdt svt and part-time nemesis,<br /> rhymeswithplaguerhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-55807847812679124572015-10-28T11:16:59.205+00:002015-10-28T11:16:59.205+00:00What a good thing to commemorate - 60 years with t...What a good thing to commemorate - 60 years with the same person, and still happy together! I do envy them, you know. They, just like my parents, are the kind of People I would like to be. Much as I love my life the way it is now, I do sometimes feel that being once divorced and once widowed is due to some personal failure of mine.<br />Don't know what's up with me today, probably just got into the melancholy autumn mood.<br />Anyway. The light in the third picture is spectacular, and the last one with that sweeping curve is great, too.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.com
