My good friend Wonder Woman (so-called because she is a real rocket scientist working with the space program, a long-time Middle School youth sponsor, expert seamstress and all around fun person)'s eldest daughter was thoughtful enough to plan her wedding at a Mexican Pacific beach resort this weekend, so of course Dorothy, her husband, El Jefe and I had to attend.
The area is known for its magnificent sunsets, so I'm sharing this picture I took with you. We were also treated to an evening of watching the humpback whales while sailing around the bay. Sometimes we saw three or four of them at a time blowing big waterspouts and flipping their tails! The weather was delightful--mid to high 70's and partly cloudy. The best part (other than the wedding itself) was the chance to spend a lot of time together and solve all the problems of the world and the church.
Now we're back to real life in dreary, rainy, cold Houston. Tomorrow I'll report on the retreat to the Piney Woods with Paul Borden. Today I've got some catching up to do!
You are such a lucky duck.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty sunset! How close can you get in a sailboat, safely, to a humpback whale?
ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago our church did a survey developed by Paul Borden...The results led us to some good decisions in ministry implementation.
