September Get-Away

I'm grateful to have just returned from a wonderful time away in Duluth, Minnesota visiting Kathy & Nathan and finally meeting little Thomas!  Only the Lord knew how much I needed this opportunity to get away from the busyness of life to think and pray - and cuddle with this precious little one.

Sunday afternoon brought beautiful weather that beckoned us outdoors for a walk.

On Monday, we drove a couple of hours along the North Shore to a small fishing town called Grand Marais.  I loved the quietness of the streets and all the quaint shops.  And of course, we had to try a donut at the World's Best Donut Shop!

The dense fog that day made for some unique pictures.

On our way back south we stopped at some scenic overlooks and hiked for a bit.  The landscape was stunning.

My last morning there we took a walk along the shore before the rain come.  

Special memories made with special people.  I'll always thank the Lord for this.
