Hello Jake
I gathered you had been very busy last week, and you forgot to check on my last week’s submission

This time my entry has a slightly different title, but the meaning is the same. I hope you don’t mind
Thank you for the inspiration. Be well!

Wonderful post and graphics, Jake! I would love to join you in those peaceful surroundings.
I agree with Marion, our surroundings have so much to do with our state of mind…but it’s also important to keep a quiet and beautiful place inside ourselves…otherwise, when surroundings are negative, they can pull us down. 
I will try to post late tomorrow if I can…I will be doing another YouTube video in my Show Me How Picture Books and Crafts for Kids series…I will be reading an old classic, “The Little Red Caboose”…maybe my post will be about the surroundings one sees while riding on a train.
