A Few More Odanata

For more information about the odanates, see the post of November 10. The following photos were taken August 29 and September 5 along the Medina River and the last two in the series yesterday, November 23, on Salado Creek:


















In keeping with the conclusion of While on a Walk's mission statement: "In the tormented, torn world we live in, this project is a testament to the power of the human spirit to find delight in God's awesome creation and to communicate that delight to others, to share in the discourse of revelation and healing;" on this Thanksgiving Day, I dedicate this series of photos to the memory of Collin Xavier Coloura. For a beautifully expressed story about Collin and his family, please read Shannon Ivey's article: Light From A Broken Hallelujah.

  1. Don - this was so special and so beautiful. This touched Elaine and her family more than you'll ever know. Thanks for working so hard to get this up!

  2. Shannon - I have had the photos set up and ready to post since this past weekend. After you shared the story with me, I added the last two photos from yesterday. To be honest, when I originally set up the photos, I was at a total loss for what to write to go with them, some way to relate the series to Thanksgiving. You deserve the credit for giving the post the power for which I was searching. Maybe we should collaborate more often.
