At the beach again. Who would have dreamed that I would be blessed enough to go twice in one year? I am "On Vacation" as Kat likes to say with 7 other ladies. We are a very different bunch, but God put us all here for a reason. Just like he does with every situation. Destin is very beautiful and a nice place to visit. Probably when I get to move to Dauphin Island someday (I'll never stop dreaming) then I can vacation in Destin. :) Kat, Teri and I left out of NLR on Friday afternoon and the bonding hasn't stopped yet. I look forward to adding some pics soon. I'll keep you updated on the week. Although what happens on the island stays on the island. The waves were huge tonight and so beautiful. Another wonderful sunrise. Thank you Lord for all Your many blessings in my life including 4 new friends.

Rainy Days and Monday's Usually Get Me Down

Amazing how a Rainy Monday at the beach is different. There is a beautiful blue Shrimp boat anchored in front of the house. The waves are crashing on the shore. The scent of coffee and bacon fills the air. Parked on the couch in front of the window, watching the Pelicans fish. Life is good today!

Amazing

I woke up at 5:37 this morning, just in time to head to the beach to watch the sun rise. I love the alone time. Just me and God. I sang at the top of my lungs. Awesome God, Sanctuary, Jesus Loves Me and of course Wade In the Water. I am so thankful today. Last night was really scarey. We had a horrible thunderstorm here on the island. A small boat was stranded about 100 yards out from our house. They sent off flares so I called 911. We tried to keep up with where they were in the water, we could only spot them during the lightning strikes. The rain came down so hard we could no longer spot them. Finally the Coast Guard called me back and told me that they had found them. It looked like they had drifted about a mile out. So thankful they were okay!

Really exhausted tonight, hopefully I will catch up on sleep and be way ahead of the game by tomorrow.

I'm back

A friend reminded me how much I love to blog, so I am going to start making more time. SOON, I promise. Is anyone still out there?
