Vacation

I've been spending some time on a deck on the bluff overlooking the shore of Lake Michigan. We've been watching and listening to the waves as they relentlously land on the beach, and watching the beautiful sunsets over the lake. Relaxing from the stress of life. A blessed day of worship and fellowship in Alto, catching up on old friendships and making new ones. Catching up on my reading. Sleeping late(something I can't seem to do at home). Smelling the fresh sea air. Feeling the warm sun. Hearing the call of seagulls. Walking the beach, beachcombing. Happy sounds of children diving into the oncoming waves. Playing late night games of Rook with the masters. Cases of Dr. Pepper disappearing. Grazing on snack foods and candy all day.
Vacation at the beach with family!

The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea. (Psalms 93:4)

Still, I prefer to vacation in the mountains.

Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; (Psalms 36:6)
