ABC Wednesday ~ E is for

E is for Eagles

I’m back in Southern California and for the letter E I’m sharing these sculptures that are in Old Town Camarillo and at the Civic Center in Thousand Oaks, California. The Sculpture in the next few photos really shows the fierceness of an Eagle to me. Kind of scary…

For more ABC posts on the letter E visit the ABC Wednesday Blog.

I will be at Disneyland in Anaheim, California on Wednesday and hope to get around to visit more ABC’s on Thursday.

Amgen Summerfest 2008

The company my husband works for always puts on a nice summer party for their employees and families. This year they combined it with the company chili-cook-off competition and gave it a Hawaiin theme.

The decorations were lots of fun. Even the founders statues got decorated.

We picked up our wrist bands and we were ready to eat, drink, and be entertained.

The chili competition booths were all very creative and the chili was cooked by employees and hosted by them as well. We spotted several celebrities serving their chili. Elvis with the cool vanilla bean chili, Gilligan, Lovee and Thurston Howell the third. We also spotted Indiana Jones.

 

There were several stations with many choices of food and drink. The entertainment was great with Polynesian Dancers, Chinese Acrobats of Hebei, Fire Dance, and Denver and the Mile-High Orchestra. Thankfully the weather was nice and not too hot. We’ll never forget the summer fest of 2006 when it was well over 100 degrees.

Blue Skies Smiling at Me ~ Sky Watch

Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see

Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long

 

Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you’re in love, my how they fly

Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on

WFW ~ 1 Corinthians 13

I Corinthians 12:31b, 13:1, 13:4, 13:7 ~

“And now I will show you the most excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.”

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.”

“It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”

Colossians 3:12 ~

“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.”
