The pictures you see here are of my mom and her first visit to the ocean as a 70 year young lady. She had a blast!!!
This last weekend we drove to Fort Lee VA to visit Bubba. It took us 12 1/2 hours to get down there but it was worth it. We had so much fun. We spent a lot of time it seemed in the car but we did a lot of sight seeing too.
Some of the sights we saw was VA beach (and went swimming), The Missouri (a battle ship), an old civial war cememtary, some lighthouses on Fort Party (an actualy Army base) and Williamsburg. We did some shoppping and lots of eating out. The four of us really enjoyed each others company.
I didn't know it until we were down there and on our way over to VA beach that my mother had never been in the ocean before. I am so glad I got to share that experience with her. She was so amazed by the ocean, playing in the waves and the salty tast, which she hated. She was also extremely impressed with the size of the battle ship. Never did she realize they were that big.
It took us 11 1/2 hours to get back home and we were all glad to see MI again. As we drove through the great mountains and saw the awesome sea we are reminded of who is the creater of all this grander is.
PSALM 24:1 The earth is the LORD'S, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein.
Praise God even after he made the earth and all that is in it, he made man.
PSALM 25:1 To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul (2) O my God, I will trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me!!!!
