And the hits just keep on comin' Bump for the Monday Freeper Foxhole.

I got woke up this AM about 5:30 by a chopper overhead in slow flight. After laying there for a few minutes I went down stairs and turned on the TV. It seems that the little store a few blocks over from me was the victim of a smash and grab robbery this AM. The vehicle of choice for entry was a backhoe!!!.

Here is a pic of what's left of the store...

Here is the backhoe going up on the tow truck...

If you look closely you can see the crime scene tape in the background of the backhoe pick. The perp had drove the backhoe back into a small wooded area where it got stuck. He then jumped off the back hoe and ran across the Santa Fe RR yard and jumped in the Kansas River where he proceeded to attempt to drown. A couple of KC,KS finest jumped in and saved his sorry butt.

The cops are okay and so is the perp, dang it.

Well the week is off to a flying start :-) Y'all have a great week!!!

Regards

Two Gardens

Read:
John 18:1-11

The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. —Genesis 2:8

Bible In One Year: 2 Samuel 1-2; Luke 14:1-24

Two gardens are mentioned prominently in the Bible: the garden of Eden and the garden of Gethsemane. God placed the first man, Adam, in the garden of Eden; Jesus went into Gethsemane to restore what the first man had lost.

The first Adam sinned in the garden; the last Adam took this sin upon Himself. The garden of Eden had the tree of life, which man could have enjoyed forever had he not broken fellowship with God. The garden of Gethsemane was a step toward the tree of death (Acts 5:30; 1 Peter 2:24). By Adam's transgression, he forfeited his right to the tree of life and brought death to all mankind. He who hung on the tree of Calvary conquered death and by His glorious resurrection restored the tree of life to all who believe.

The garden where Adam fell is gone from the earth, but there is a glad day coming when He who suffered alone in Gethsemane will restore all things. The curse will be lifted from the earth, the animals will again be docile (Isaiah 11:6-8), the deserts will disappear (Isaiah 35:6), the earth will yield her increase abundantly (Amos 9:13), and Jesus will be here personally to bless His people (Revelation 21:3).

What Adam lost, Jesus will restore. —M. R. De Haan, M.D.

Adam was God's first man in creation—
He through sin brought death to all mankind;
Jesus came to earth to bring salvation:
Trusting Him, eternal life we'll find. —Hess

God formed us; sin deformed us; Christ transforms us.
