Orion, the herald of winter for us in the Northern Hemisphere. I always liked watching for Orion rising in the fall sky to its glory in deep dark winter when I had a telescope, I would spend freezing hours watching it.

But not fast enough that chasing it with the telescope generates sufficient heat.

By a long way! :lol:

Another stunner there, Denny. :)

You can totally see why many people believe there must be a guiding hand at work.
And whether the blood be highland, lowland or no.
And whether the skin be black or white as the snow.
Of kith and of kin we are one, be it right, be it wrong.
As long as our hearts beat true to the lilt of a song.

Yes, indeed.

And even look at the human eyeball or a puppy. The forms and shapes and colors and the way parts work together to form a whole, they're all so utterly fragile yet lasting, complex and amazing that to say or believe they all happened by accident or some chemical fluke of nature seems just as crazy, if not crazier than thinking there was a God who created it all, to many.
