Spring was full of one thing after another and then Summer started off with millions of details to pull together for our first graduation party and then a big trip for our senior and myself. It had been such a long time since I had last traveled to the west coast. After eight days away, I came home feeling blessed. Each issue I had stressed over beforehand had turned out just fine and really more than fine. God answered a lot of prayers and it was a super trip.
The delight of travel for me is exploration. From trying new foods to seeing new sights, it's a true adventure to be discovering a place for the first time. I wanted to carry into the remaining weeks of Summer wonder and excitement, a challenge regardless of how much I enjoy experiencing new things. There are dishes to be washed, driving, then more driving to take kids to work, to go grocery shopping, to pick up mulch from the garden store. Then of course meals need to be made, and for this dry spell we are in, gardens need to be watered and then watered day after day after day. In July, I kept that spirit of exploration alive but now the school year has already started. What explorations can I fit into the Fall routines to keep life Fresh?
