The Old Gingko

One of my favorite places in Vicksburg, whatever the season.

The Old Gingko tree in the Vicksburg National Cemetery,

located in the Vicksburg National Military Park.

Here is the original color photo.  Which do you prefer?

All Things Bright and Beautiful

All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful: The Lord God made them all. He gave us eyes to see them, And lips that we might tell, How great is God Almighty, Who has made all things well. [From the hymn written by Cecil F. Alexander, 1848] Raindrops Pine Seed Pod Trumpet Vine B Blue Hydrangea Blossom Lotus Blossom Soaking Tiger Balloon Vine Tendrils Wild Georgia Blackberries Swallowtail Mississippi Delta Sunflower Mimosa Blossom Peacock Pink and Red Crape Myrtle Blossoms Dragonfly Orange Flamingos  And last, but not least ... My favorite ginkgo tree in the Vicksburg National Cemetery May your weekend be filled with all things bright and beautiful.
