Are there days when you would love to escape to a place like this . . . and leave no forwarding address? So secluded and quiet, except for the crashing waves. Probably no phone signals either. Nice. I actually don't know where this is; I found it in Tim's photo archives. Must be somewhere out west or out east, or down south. We don't need to know; just knowing it's there is comforting.
Now, where did you go this year that felt like a real getaway? A place like this, or with family, or just into a quiet room in your house? My getaway this year was to North Carolina, visiting our daughters and son-in-law. There is a wonderful lake hidden in the mountains there with a walking trail around it. Twice a day I walked it, in the morning, and usually again when the sun was setting. I felt a million miles from obligations, and that was good.
What about you?
The photo is from the coast of California north of San Fran. The tiny dots on the beach are people.

Just yesterday I hiked uphill through a woods for 3/4 mile and found myself on top of a sand dune, about 350 feet above Lake Michigan, with various shades of blue, green, and teal water stretching to the end of the horizon. The temperature was comfortable, the sun was shining, and there was not a cloud in the sky. An occasional bird flew along the shore, far below me. This truly was getting away from it all, and everything around me declared the glory and majesty of our creator God!
