    Jacob’s ladder – I think it is Andy preparing for ordination that made me look at this picture and select the title for this post

    Andy and I had a ride that rid us of the rigours of the week, some might ask why one would have to put oneself through that degree of pain to clear the head. It works for us.

    I forgot my camera but Andy remembered his.

As we took a photograph we were told that the cameras could be confiscated and we were forbidden to publish the photograph.
