We are on our annual family vacation at the beach house here in California. This is not your typical beach house-we are not on the sand- but on a small cliff-overlooking the amazing ocean- our days are spent out on the deck- counting seagulls, watching Sea Otters playing and feeding their young, Seals playing, and if we're lucky spotting a pod of Dolphins touring up the coast. The living room of this house is wall to wall windows- so even on those foggy, chilly days-we can sit on the worn, soft, supple leather couches and watch the "show" from inside. It is amazing!!! It is a place where we can unwind, spend time with loved ones, and re-center ourselves and our life with our Creator. Here are some pictures from the deck. The kids each have their own pair of "nocculars" to watch the sea life- enjoy... .
