Resting from Rest!



We're home! However, it seems like everyone else is gone. We returned home on Friday night, and on Saturday were back to set-up at the school. It took longer than usual because everyone else is out on vacation this month. Thankfully, we get to leave the church equipment set up for five weeks during summer vacation.

We had a great time visiting friends and getting reacquainted with familiar places. My favorite spot to reconnect with was Winter Park. FIFTEEN years ago, Mary and I spent the first night of our honeymoon in Winter Park. The town has grown and changed... it was a great time to celebrate. Mary found the place we stayed in fifteen years ago (there's a funny story behind this, but you'll have to call or email to get the full version), but we stayed in a European bead and breakfast across the street.

Breakfast by the river in the morning was amazing!

That's enough nostalgia for one posting... the point is, I have a lifetime of wonderful memories... and most of them are not of places, but people. It's hard to be separated by such great distances from people we love... there will be a day when separation is a distant memory... until then, life and work go on.
