Cruising

We leave a week from tomorrow heading for New Orleans. We are going on our first cruise in over 10 years. The first and last cruise was to Alaska. I'm not sure this will be as awe inspiring, but I am looking forward to getting away to new territory.
The Bahamas. I never expected to go. I never expected to go to all the places we have been. God has truly blessed us.

Painted Desert, Petrified Forest just places you hear about. Grand Canyon, Yosemite National Park, Giant Sequoias, Redwoods all sites that boggle the imagination. San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge never thought I would ever be there. Mount Olympus, Mt Rainier and Glacier National Park. Magnificent. Yellowstone National Park with Buffalo, Elk, Bear all in natural habitat. Old Faithful, a dream. The Tetons, majestic. Mt Rushmore, Custer State Park. Taking five months just to see all that. Wow, I am in awe of the beauty and the majesty of this country.

This past Fall, New York State, the beauty of upper New York. Niagara Falls awesome. Lake Champlain in Vermont.New Hampshire, Mt Washington, White Mountains,The Coast of Maine, Massachusetts, Plymouth, Cape Cod. Pennsylvania, Valley Forge, Gettysburg and Philadelphia. All that history too much to absorb in one visit. It makes you stand taller.

We should have started younger.
