City in the Clouds

Kevin was in a meeting a couple of months ago in the tallest building (Columbia Towers, I think) in downtown Seattle ... Incidentally it was a meeting on "cloud" computing. :-)
[The picture below shows Qwest Field and right behind it, Safeco Field.]

He was snapping some pictures of the city view ...

[The back-center of this next image shows the Seattle Space Needle (as labeled). The building to the left of the Space Needle (also labeled) you'll want to remember.] It was already a cloudy day (cloudy in Seattle? Shocking, I know), and within moments a thick blanket of clouds floated in and the entire city just disappeared ...

Except for this ..

There's no doubt that the most poignant beauty in this earth is usually the result of simple acts of nature. But how cool to be there at the moment it all happens.

This image in particular could lend itself to several inspiring analogies. I kind of like the idea that in the chaos of city life--or just life for that matter--there is peace to be found. We just have to set our sights a little higher and then let God do His work.

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
