July Fourth Weekend

Vacation has been a wonderful combination of relaxation and fun. Matt and I spent four days in Ludington with my family. We saw fireworks on the beach, ate grilled food, rode bikes, and enjoyed the sun on the beach and in a pool.

 Here are a few vacation photos I uploaded to my Instagram:

Home away from home.

Morning birdsong.

 

 

Waiting for dusk.

Sargent Sands.

Clear waters.

And a couple from my sister Jeannine's Instagram:

Champagne on the beach!

I have a knack for not looking at the camera.

The best part is I don't return to work until Thursday so I have a few more days to relax.

How was your July Fourth?

This photo was taken in Ludington in 2005; Matt and I started dating a week later. It is hard to believe that over six years have passed. 

Four more days until we wed.

Wordless Wednesday: Wishful Thinking

Summer is Here

As a summer baby born in the hottest, most humid part of the Michigan summer, this summer has not disappointed. Warm, sunny weather mixed with just the right amount of storms, I have not felt this alive in years.


I have already made two treks across Michigan, one up to visit family in Ludington and the other to Rochester to watch the USA play England in the World Cup and roam the old haunting grounds. I tend to believe the trip as as much about confronting the past as enjoying the match with old friends.


With the solstice and longest day of the year behind us, my hope is to make more trips around Michigan, enjoying local, of course, renewing my efforts to find a new, better-suited job and participating in the joy summer brings to me.
