Since tomorrow is Sunday, I thought it would be nice to post a photo of C. S. Lewis’ church, which is located not too far from the Kilns. I was with two friends on the day that I took this photo. It was damp but not really raining. While visited his grave, we heard organ music and decided to go inside the church. After struggling with the door for several minutes and knocking to see if someone would let us in, we finally lifted a huge iron latch and the door swung open. The chapel was alive with activity. People were busy cleaning and dusting, and yes there was an organist playing heavenly music.

A photo of a beautiful rose—taken on a rainy day. Hope it brings a smile to your heart and helps you remember a wonderful moment in your own life.

This is the view from C. S. Lewis’ bedroom window on the second floor of the Kilns. Writers are always trying to “figure out” how other writers come up with ideas for books and things. I confess that as I took this snap shot, I wondered if Lewis ever thought of Lucy, Prince Caspain, Aslan, and the others while gazing out at this view. . . . The pathway leads to the pond where he would swim every morning—rain or shine, warm or cold.

Early morning with the sun drifting through the windows and it is either time to take a nap or head out on an adventure.

Do you ever feel this way? Like it is raining all over the world, and you are caught up in the downpour?

Saturday was rainy so I decided it was a perfect time for Cocoa to get a bath. Our favorite place to get this done is at Mom and Pups in Marietta. Recently, this shop was voted one of the best pet boutiques in Atlanta. But from this photo, you can tell it was not all fun and games. Still after the “do it yourself” dog wash was over and her hair was dry, Cocoa loved the way she felt! See all the photos at Training Up Cocoa
