A simple number, four. It’s often over looked for it’s neighbor and easy multiplier 5, but what about 4?

There have been a lot of famous fours over the eons. In the Bible there are many fours: 4 seasons, 4 “corners” of the earth, 4 Rivers of Eden,  on the fourth day of Creation Week we are introduced to day and night and the demarcation of time. The 4 Authors of the Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Skip to the end of the book and we see the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

More recent history,  Georgia was the fourth state to Ratify the Constitution. James Madison was the fourth president of the USA.  Fast forward, we see the Fab Four-the Beetles and The Highwaymen, four of Country Music’s outlaws: Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson.

Four can be interesting. 😉

Today is the 4th anniversary of Dad’s death. Later in June it will mark our 4th year here in Alaska.  I have 4 children, so does my Mom. Four is a good number.

The kids and I continued our 4 year tradition of going out to the end of the road at Cap’t Cook to have a campfire cookout, go beach combing, just spend some time in nature. This year we were blessed with our friends joining us to honor Dad’s blessed memory. It was really great to have friends along! ❤
