The better parts…..
All jobs are jobs, but all jobs have their up side! Saturday and Sunday I got to do one of , my favorite assignments, I spoke each day for the great folks at the Wilderness Wildlife Weekend in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. The folks that come to these events are really special, they a re down to earth, and love photography, and always how great appreciation for my programs, I guess we really love those that love us back!
What really impresses me is how secure most of the folks are in who they are, just regular folks, that are kind and compassionate. A great group to find myself hanging out with. As I prepare for my future, it is my goal to do that almost every day I can! We are given choices in life and we need to choose those things that work for us. God doesn’t want us to live in misery, and we don’t have to.
I’ve found a simple formula; trust God, read His word, listen for His voice, and Obey. If you do He will lead you to the kinds of days I spent Saturday and Sunday!!
Blessings,
the pilgrim

You’re right about the folks at WWW. It’s a very laid back atmosphere with friendly folks. The really cool this is so much of this annual event is put on by volunteers — people who love The Smokies, outdoors, nature, and the photography that goes along with it. I think this was my fourth year. I’m looking forward to next year when it expands and just gets better.
It was great getting to talk with you this weekend.
And by the way, your presentations just keep getting better and better.
Bill,
As much as you enjoy making the presentation we love listing to someone who loves the Lord and is not afraid to say so.
Your images were great and I made many notes to remind myself of things.
Thanks guys, I enjoyed being with you!
