Fire Hydrants

Did you know there are approximately 83 fire hydrants if you drive from 965 5th Street, out Sunnyview to Pratum, back through town on Market and return to 965 5th Street? I didn't either. And I drive that route - or something very similar - almost every week day. But let me tell you, once someone in the car starts counting fire hydrants - you notice one on every corner. It's amazing, they jump out at you.

These insignificant (unless your house is on fire) road adornments go unnoticed all the time. I'm positive I've trained my eyes to see right through them. I simply Never notice them. Until Abby started saying, "Fire Hydrant" every time she sees one. Now I see them everywhere.

I wonder if there is a spiritual application to that. I'm sure there is, but I don't really have time to figure it out. Maybe you can tell me what it is!! I bet we could come up with a lot of different ideas!

I've been painting in my worship room today. It's awesome - I'll tell you about it some time and post a picture.
