Please take a look at these wonderful photographs by Christ and behold the natural beauty that we all seem to forget about that was created by God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is his website where you can read more about him and order his book. <a href=\"https:\/\/christtroupis.com\/\">https:\/\/christtroupis.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Christ is a past contributor to Gem State Patriots articles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Christmas is just a week away, I thought that instead of talking about all of the problems that we face in our country, it would be a good time to take a break and look at some of the wonders of nature around us.
