21 Days in (our kind of) paradise

Psalms 90:17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish the work of our hands for us; Yes, establish the work of our hands.

Our family is taking an adventurous road trip through Western Montana and Idaho for 21 days in our little 1998 30' 5th wheel trailer along with our old lazy yellow lab, Roxy. We love to fish, hike, bike, sight see in God's creation all the while marveling at its beauty and serenity away from the busyness and face paced life we live in Temecula CA. This trip is helping us to open our eyes to parts of the country that we feel The Lord is leading us to...we know we do not want to stay in California once our boys have finished high school and Jeff has retired from the fire department. This trip is solely by His provision. We did not want to go into debt by making this trip so we decided to put our old ski boat up for sale since we haven't used it for 5 years. We said if its God's will for us to take this trip the boat will sell. Not even one week after listing it for sale it sold for the full asking price. That is what we call His Divine Providence and His go ahead and blessing on this trip. Thank you God for this provision!
