This is actually Keila-Joe...pronounced "keelah-hoe"


Psalm 98:7-8

"Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that live in it. Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together before the Lord..."

So, Keila-Joe is this really awesome park with water falls and old manor homes from the late 1800's, which were almost demolished during the Russian occupation. The above picture is of the Keila-Joe bridge.

There are locks on the bridge because, as Russian tradition goes, when a couple becomes engaged they must close the deal by placing a monogrammed lock on a bridge. This just happens to be a pretty popular bridge...hence all of the locks:)

God is so faithful, and I am really thankful to be here. Have a great day!

try to pick some of those locks, i coulc use a few on the deer leases in Texas. Looks like they need to remove some of them, or just start locking locks to the locks already on the chains. Pretty need stuff, no shoes hanging from trees? Love DAD

haha, nope, no shoes. kids walk on the bridge and check out the locks...if they are loose, then they throw them in the river...funny stuff.
