Kudos to the Resort decorating team. Nailed it.

Island Church buildings.

Some you drive by.

Some you walk by.

Some you go in.

Some you sleep in.

Captiva Day 1, spirit

A delightful surprise.

Was able to creatively shorten my drive-time perception.

Music rotation was the key.

Also made an unusually challenging commitment to stop looking at the clock and map milage.

Disney teamwork, spirit

Tried to do a self-timer selfie-mode. Too challenging, so here’s the regular selfie that somehow modified the focus.

Classic…

In the giving we receive.

Wrap like you mean it

The office closet has a 18″ x 48″ table surface. Good for spreading things out.

Christmas is when you get stuff.

For Christians, it’s when we get a Savior.

It’s also when we get commercially-minded and buy (more-than-necessary) stuff for others.

All the stuff ‘has’ to be wrapped.

Why?

Probably because the anticipation of the gift unwrapping is symbolic of what happened 2,000 years ago in Bethlehem.

Time, spirit

Summer 2025. Probably the final group visit. Why? Time.

As the ‘boys’ get older, the reality is present that their adult journey will make scheduling a summer week in Northwest Montana adjacent to the Canadian boarder as challenging as any ‘family gathering’ .
