Hunting, peaches, and salvation. Great post, pass the gravy. Hey, where's the sand and bikinis?

I was astounded by how the Baptism pictures turned out. Not so much by the quality, but the way the "illumination" of the subjects turned out. I took them hurriedly with my iPhone. Didn't take time for composing or setting up, etc. The event was at a place on our Church grounds where a small stream and a larger one come together. The stream is almost totally covered with overhanging trees and bushes this time of year. Somehow a ray of light shone on the Preacher and the "dunkee." Usually the iPhone will even these things out without lighting part of the picture. Not this time. To a believer such as I am, it can't be just happenstance.

In this neck of the woods you are more likely to see girls in their Daisy Dukes.

Careful of those baptizing holes. One of my two snakebites came from swimming in one when I was a kid.
One question though, where are the pics of the blackberry or peach cobbler????

Redlevel, I can recall the baptisms in Lookout Creek when I was a kid. The place was below an old grist mill and dam. The mill was burned by an arsonist when I was about 13 years old.
Small Southern towns, woods to explore, streams to fish, miles of two lane roads to pedal our bikes on, etc. I have always cherished my childhood. We did not have much in material possessions but I still consider myself blessed to have been reared in the South.
Give thanks to the Lord for that, my parents, and all that went with it.

Good stuff.

I've had a taste or two of the Deep South. It's a special place to me. Great memories.

I got Baptized in an indoor tank in Atlanta when I was 11.

That was about 3 weeks ago on the opening hours of frog season here in South Louisiana. Those were a total of around 95ish frogs, LMAO.

Frog Legs, Hell yeah its whats for dinner!!!!!!!!

PS: I dunno about how you guys in other states do it. But i will say that "most" people go for just the frog legs. But down here the rednecks (pun intended and fingers pointed at me) have discovered that the meat on the back is just as good.

Any given summer day on a Texas beach.
