Israel is 60 Today!

Modern Israel is a Light to the Nations

Twenty-eight years ago I remember my amazement that the florist boxes from our wedding were from Israel. A little research showed that this small nation used some creative irrigation technology to become a world agricultural power. What's even more amazing is that many of the people who came there from Europe were not even farmers! The Israel you DONT see on the nightly news is truely making the desert blossom like a rose.

This Tourism Department Website is really worth looking at. It certainly gives you a taste for the beauty of this land and its special character.
