Electric boxes on Pole

There's a vacant lot on a corner in downtown Abilene that is empty except for these electric boxes.

I don't now what they do or what they power, but this empty lot has been like this since I've been here 

for the past 7 years.

The Switch Plate

I'm grateful for so many things in my life.  The other night when I was doing some hand-sewing while watching TV it occurred to me that electricity and light is something I'm very happy about.  

It would be especially difficult to do needlework of any kind at night.  I know that generations managed just fine with lanterns and gas lamps, but that was their reality and they didn't have any options.

Thankfully, we do.

My heart is happy today for:
