Camping July '10

It's time for the trip up north "To da UP eh?" One thing I have enjoyed over the years is my annual camping trip with one of my kids to the UP of Michigan. This year I get to add another generation to the tradition. Chas, (son), Jhace (grandson) and I will be heading up to St. Ignace. This all started back in 1978 when Candy and I camped in the back of our '76 Datsun pick up truck. A lot has changed since then but the campground we found seems to be locked in a time warp. Not a whole lot different 32 years later. We look forward to a time of fires, outdoor cooking, cooler temperatures and new adventures. We also like to roll down the windows when we cross the Mackinaw Bridge. The cold air makes us laugh as we drive across. I thank God for all the wonderful memories and for the ability and provision to be able to go on these wonderful trips. I hope you have some great things planned that you can give God thanks for too!
