Oh, What A Wonderful World

We got back from camping yesterday. We had a great time. My sister brought her camper and some friends rented a camper at the campground. The kids played and played and played. Zac was laid up bec. he had his wisdom teeth removed last Friday but he managed (thanks to WIFI). I can now mark one thing off of my list of things to do.....Camp next to the stream at Buck's Pocket. That has been on my list for 20 years.

It was a beautiful spot for camping. Every morning I drank coffee by the rapids and listened to the water flowing and the birds chirping. I am always amazed at how God created these sights and sounds just for me. At least that is how I feel when I am alone in nature. That is the best time when we go camping in the woods or even if we are at the beach, the time before the kids are up and it is quiet and I can be alone with God.

Some other things I want to do... tent camp on the cliff at Cheaha State Park, see Hawaii with David's friend that lives there (all of her family are original Hawaiians), see Montana or the Dakotas, drive up the eastern seacoast in the fall, go back to the Florida Keys, go back to the Grand Canyon and stay longer

Things that were on my list but are now done... drive to the Pacific Ocean, drive to the Keys, ride on an airboat in the Everglades, visit Miami, walk across the border into Mexico, stay in Palm Springs, see the Grand Canyon, see the Rio Grande
