good thoughts

I just took a nostalgia inducing sip of some starbucks pike place brew (thank you family and friends for packages...they are like gold here!!). It’s almost like I was transported back to the States. My mind flashed to liss and me grabbing a starbucks and heading to the north shore for a couple of nights. What a great thought! There is almost nothing better than packing up everything you need on your back, setting off together into the woods and enjoying the Creator God. I am picturing us thoughtfully staring at the fire, flipping through a good book and finally crawling into a warm sleeping bag only to wake up to crisp morning air inviting us to do it all over again. Mmm…sounds good, especially on a holiday weekend like this! Happy 4th to everyone and if you can, enjoy Minnesota for us!
