Beulah

2 Things

2 Things
Standing next to this man-made behemoth (those propeller blades are each 90 feet long) can make a man feel insignificant. The diameter of the base is about 15′. They need a crane to lift the crane that works on these things. To stand under the hub that holds the propellers blades on the tower and hear it croak and scream, well, it gave me shivers and I am fearless ;-)
As the title suggests though, I have another ‘thing’ to mention today. I went to a funeral for a cousins of my Father’s. I did not know Beulah very well, so when the stories from other relatives started I found it hard not to listen to them. It seems that Beulah was a sharing and giving type of person. She taught 1st graders. In fact the theme of the sermon was “If you can read this, hug a Teacher.” After dinner, as the stories flew, I learned that Beulah was even more then a caring teacher. One cousin stood up and lamented about that in desperation she called on Beulah for some type of emergency. Then someone else stood up with another emergency story … and then another … It was immensely displayed that Beulah was the person that so many called on in emergencies and called just for advice. She was always there to help whomever, whenever.
Beulah stood tall. Beulah was more reliable then this behemoth pictured here. Beulah made this man feel more insignificant than anything man-made!
