| Looking down on Central Atenas & the Central Church Atenas, Costa Rica |
 |
| But just the hills on the backside of my neighborhood are a “Feast for My Eyes!” Early morning fog reminds me of the presence of the Holy Spirit. What a place to walk! Atenas, Costa Rica |
 |
| One of my favorite views when I walk through the neighborhood. |
And of course it immediately reminds me of Psalm 50:10
. . . for every animal of the forest is Mine,
the cattle on a thousand hills.
Psalm 50:10, Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
Today I went to church with a Tico friend and after church I went to a Tico restaurant with two Tico friends instead of going to the gringo restaurant with a bunch of gringos! I feel good! And my finger is healing very rapidly! Sufrexal is a miracle drug! It causes new skin to grow!
On the walk through my neighborhood I just couldn’t include all the images, so here are two more that a few of our homes have as their vista, the pastoral farm hills around Atenas. And the third is a similar view from my bedroom and office/guest room.
 |
| Some have farms, cattle, coffee, or other use while other hills are investments. Hopefully they will not all be developed as the wildness around us disappears! |
 |
| Some have roads over them like above, for what reason I know not. Some of these hills are coffee farms or were in earlier times. |
 |
| And from my office/guest room before I added fishtail palms for privacy. |
And how appropriate that on the day I post these pastoral scenes Sarah Bartlett at McKendree sends this link to a visual version of Ode to Joy by Beethoven.
