Did you miss me?

I know my posting has been sporadic this past week, but I took a well earned vacation and spent five days at Myrtle Beach. We had 85 degree days every day and not one single drop of rain. Their was no humidity and the wind was light and balmy. We could not have ordered better weather. 


We took lots of walks on the beach, letting the ocean wash up across our feet. 


I loved the times I took my chair down and enjoyed my book while watching the waves. It was so relaxing that I must admit I watched more waves than I read pages.


There were some gorgeous sunrises....


....and on the street side of the hotel, we caught some breathtaking sunsets.


Due to Maria about 350 miles off the coast, we had some high tides with 5-8 foot waves which resulted in lots of great shell finds. We went shelling every evening around 6:00 and brought home lots of unique finds.


Did lots of shopping which I'll share another day. God displayed his handiwork the morning we left with this beautiful sunrise and majestic sun rays. It was an amazing week.


But as much as I loved wearing flip flops every day, gazing endlessly at ocean waves and watching the sun rise over the ocean, nothing compared to the feeling I got when I saw mountains on the highway heading home. Vacations are amazing but there is no place like home.
