Sharing photos from a relaxing Sunday

I'm starting to think I take my best photos from the passenger seat of a moving vehicle.
This afternoon Ralph and I attended two educational and fun programs. One focused on local history and the second focused on art. We both may post about them later in the week.
Stay tuned. ;-)
I snapped these two pictures of the sky after we left the history program.

I took the photo below after we left the second event. Sunset sure comes early these days. It wasn't even 4:30 yet. This photo was taken when the van was stopped at a light.

In true potpourri style, I post photos of yellow weed leaves that caught my eye in this morning's sunshine. For this one I was standing on terra firma, not sitting in Ralph's van.

I hope you enjoyed accompanying me on my day.

It's a cozy congregation, I guess you could say

Picture this: A good-looking, middle-aged guy who uses a power wheelchair serves communion to a small congregation on a Sunday morning.
Yes, friends, I'm describing Ralph. He's a deacon at our church. Today was his turn and he did just fine.
But having a guy balance, and practically juggle, a silver platter of mini-communion cups filled with grape juice on his lap as he steers the wheelchair down the aisle is rather ludicrous.

He was honored last year to be asked to be a deacon, but it just looks weird. And I for one cannot look, afraid bread may drop off the plate in his lap or juice will spill or something messy like that.
There were no mishaps, nor have there been with him doing it thus far, so I suppose I should not be concerned.
