Camping


Here was our home away from home for the weekend.

We watched the sun set Friday night. This is, after all, Michigan's sunset coast.

Here are Jenna and Trisha's hands making a heart.
Trisha and I pose for a sunset photo op.

Before we watched the sunset, we went into town with the Walker's. We went to their favorite ice cream joint, House of Flavors. They had peppermint. I was excited!

It did rain Saturday morning first thing, and then again around lunch time. We played some games to pass the time. Once the sun started to peak out, we put away the games and headed to the beach.

Bill and I tried kayaking with Brent, Katrina and Trisha, but we both tipped over. It was just a little too rough, and it was more effort than we wanted to put into it. I know kayaking is work, but we had hoped to be able to talk a little while we were on the water. That wasn't going to happen.

We did a lot of walking and relaxing. Dinner was delicious (cooked by our own church members); steaks, potatoes, corn and a big salad. Today was sunny. Big puffy clouds were building inland. Breakfast was cooked by the men. We had a nice, short, very informal service.

It was very relaxing and I'm glad we went. I can't wait to go back next year!
