I know, today is supposed to be 'Bible Studyish' day...and by rights I should be composing the next little look at someone going through a transition.
But, ya know, sometimes ya need a break.
I think that really is beginning to get through my thick skull.
We took a zippy 6 day trip up to Indiana to spend a day or two with our parents, and celebrate our 35th anniversary in the process.
My hubby surprised me by making reservations in the Inn at Turkey Run State Park. The 'Anniversary Package' included a night in the inn, dinner and breakfast, and a late checkout. Oh, and a bottle of champagne (which we switched for sparkling grape juice. Honest.) and commemorative stemmed glasses with chocolate.
It was quite a treat...and we hiked like crazy Monday morning to squeeze in our favorite bits of the park...the big trees on trail 9 and Rocky Hollow on trail 3. Climbed boulders, ladders, many stairs...yeah, we were feeling it the next day.We tend to forget how much we enjoy each other's company...when we're so busy that we're basically just saying 'good morning' and 'good night' to each other.
We've taken the kids to Turkey Run a few times...this was the first time we got to go by ourselves. And the first time we were there for sunset and sunrise. We actually hiked the half mile down to the suspension bridge before breakfast to take sunrise photos.
Now, of course, I'm playing catch up and I have some pretty major stuff to cover this weekend at work.
Coming back, I told My Sweet Baboo that we need to begin now to schedule our next 'just us' getaway.
And it needs to happen before Christmas... ;-)
Look for the post on Israel: The 'Face the Music' Road next week...
