Put to the perfect music by Julie Meyer ~ Paint Your Picture

To Asher he assigned western Galilee, (Joshua 19:24-31) a region with comparatively low temperature, and much rainfall, making it some of the most fertile land in Canaan, with rich pasture, wooded hills, and orchards; as such Asher was particularly prosperous, and known for its olive oil.

Asher ~ happy, blessed, fortunate, abundance

Happy 90th Birthday!

A man's age is something impressive, it sums up his life:  maturity reached slowly and against many obstacles, illnesses cured, griefs and despairs overcome, and unconscious risks taken; maturity formed through so many desires, hopes, regrets, forgotten things, loves.  A man's age represents a fine cargo of experiences and memories.  
~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

I am thankful to have been given the opportunity to capture such a wonderful moment.
