We had a wonderful summer!  Thank you for all of your prayers and encouragement over the past 3 months.  God is indeed faithful and the giver and sustainer of life. We are blessed beyond measure to have a loving, faithful and compassionate God.  Here are some pictures of some of the things we were able to do this summer.  God is our healer and it was so good to be able to be active again.  Thanks be to God!

 We went to San Francisco for 3 days.  In the afternoons the clouds came in really low.  It looked like a giant wave coming over the hills.

 We went down Lombard Street. (behind us)

 Does this look familiar? There were many people sitting or napping on this hill.  While we were enjoying the view a pit bull came running down the hill and jumped on a napping couple.  The dog jumped on their heads and was acting like it wanted to play!  The surprised couple handled it very well and soon left as the owner scolded her dog.

 The Golden Gate Bridge!

 We went to The Big Basin and saw the red wood trees!  Kimberly had been wanting to see these trees for years. They are around 2,000 years old and can grow over 300 feet tall! It's hard to imagine that some of these trees have been here since Jesus was walking on earth!

 On day 3 we went to Muir Woods.  It was beautiful!

 From San Fransico we went to Boston to visit Luisa, Preston and Isaac.  We went to the beach for half a day.  The water was cold but that didn't stop all of us from getting in.  Isaac was the first one to get in!
