Happy Thanksgiving to y'all!! Time flies when you're having fun - I mean when you're busy. My camera gave up the holy ghost last month and, after a couple of weeks I finally got a new one. Well, the thing is, I am slow when it comes to technology so it took me a good couple of weeks before I was comfortable using it. So I have a love-hate relationship with my new gadget but I managed to put out some contents somehow to which I am glad.
Last month we celebrated our 36th anniversary. We thank the Lord for blessings beyond measure both now and in the past and we sure are looking towards the future and can't wait to see what He has for us. I had a friend (when we lived in San Diego 35 years ago), who said this when Mike and I were ready to return to Wichita, Kansas: "Treat everyday as if it is gift that you open every morning. God always has something special for you." Since then I make it a point that everyday I thank God for the gift of a new day and wait with anticipation what He has in store for me. I know that whatever comes our way - good or bad - it's all good, because God's in it.
So somehow we managed to slip out of town, to South Dakota to visit Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse Monument as our wedding anniversary celebration. This might be our last trip to US National Parks so I chose Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse before we move back to the Philippines. This will also be our last Thanksgiving and Christmas here in America. Just between you and me - I don't think I'd want to come back here during the cold season - I have enough of the cold weather. We might come and visit family but it will be during the summer months.
Anyway, I'd like to share with you our travel to South Dakota. You can watch it here:
While we were there we explored Fossil Forest Park, the Military Cemetery and we drove up to Sturgis and visited the Harley Davidson Museum. It was a long drive from Kansas to South Dakota and along the way we saw cows, cornfields, cows...and cornfields :) I will miss this country but I can't wait to move out of here too considering what's going on all over....well I'll leave it at that. Thank you all for following. SHALOM and God bless!
