Worth It

This past vacation came with it's trials and tribulations. Stared it off with two flat tires and the AAA truck running out of gas did not give us comfort at first. But God is good and we made it safely to Niagara Falls.

I would go through it all again to be able to spend time with my cousins. Even if we did not get to see anything on our vacation spending time getting to know Joe and his wife a little better made it worth while.
Of course spending time every summer with Marge and her husband is the highlight of each year for me. There is a connection there that makes her not only my cousin but my closest friend.

God blessed us over and over. I am not only blessed to have great cousins but great friends and family.
Everything that is good and bad in my life is worth it because God is worth it. I can't wait for next year.

Wonders Upon Wonders

Even though we had a rough start to our vacation, I can say this past week has been wonderful. God has showed us many wonders.

One of the great wonders for us was finally getting to not only see an owl but get great pictures to boot. This has been my cousin's dream ever since we started vacationing together.

The owl was been the only wonder we got to see. God has been showing us wonders upon wonders. We are seeing buffalo, new birds, awesome falls and many other animals. Of course I am getting my pictures of the chipmunks. My vacation would not be complete without them.

While I cannot put any pictures up at this time, I can tell of the wonders that God is showing me. We are only on the first week and I feel completely blessed.

We are in Deadwood right now and there is nothing dead about this place. If any of my writers group are seeing this blog. Yes we have seen our Yellow-bellied Marmot. In fact we got the whole family this time.

I know there are many wonders yet to see this vacation. I can't wait.
