Refreshing Reprieve
Up
the
steps,
through
the
parking
lot,
into
the
car,
onto
the
highway,
through
the
tunnel
and
we were on
our way home.
Dan mused, "I'd forgotten how much Lake Superior is like the ocean - and it's just a two...three...four hour drive."
Living in the center of North America far from any coast, Dan often dreams of an ocean-side retirement home with waves crashing against the shores and the serenity of the blue vastness outstretched before him. That time is far away. Minnesota's North Shore is closer.
I saw him pocket two brochures:
one for deep-sea fishing
and another
for schooner sailing.
Maybe we'll be back for another Refreshing Reprieve.
Takk for turen. (Giving thanks by sharing this trip.)
With great gratitude to Paka and Grammy for keeping our boys and Moose overnight - so we could celebrate Dan's 40 years five months late and our 17th wedding anniversary a month early.
AND (just now) TO MY 10,000th visitor (like Minnesota's lakes) to ALONG LIFE'S ROAD!
