New Layout

Decided to change up my blog design to mark being done with my college career, (although it still doesn't really feel like it) with the main inspiration coming from a recent trip to Mammoth Lakes.

To paraphrase Traci...it's as if God were up there painting the skies, smudging beautiful streaks of color together in the sunset.

When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze;
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee; How great Thou art!
How great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
