First Time Seeing The West Coast (Part 1)

Last week Wednesday

a little before 4am

I drove myself to Detroit Metro Airport

                               to head 

                                   to The West Coast 

                                        to visit my friend Dana

                                                       eeeekkk! :)

Here is a glimpse of my trip there:

Wednesday: 

                Took early connecting flight and landed in Texas y'all! 

                                           
                                                   Then hello Reno, Nevada

 Settled in and relaxed for a few hours at Dana's

then we drove to Virgina City, Nevada

Had a great day and dinner with Dana's family.

And enjoyed the view in their neighborhood. 

 It's something pretty special to see

since I live in Michigan.

Thursday:

We took turns driving to California.

First we had to go into the mountains to get there.

Many had to stop and put chains on their tires 

because of the snow in the mountains

We quickly went from this:

To this (stopping in Sacramento, California): 

Then we drove to San Francisco, California

Do these houses below look familiar?

(I'll give you a clue: they were in the intro to a popular TV show

in the late 80's to early 90's. )

At The Pacific Ocean

How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How great is the sum of them! 

 If I should count them, they would be more in number

 than the sand;
When I awake, I am still with You.

     Psalm 139:17-18 

Remember my friend Dana from THIS STORY?

And from HERE too?

Well... I've been on the other side of the country

this week visiting her (and traveling lots!)

We took a road trip from Nevada to California. 

These pictures are from yesterday

which was my first time seeing The Pacific Ocean.

God's creations are breathtaking

(more pictures to come in the days ahead ;) 

Praises to Jesus!

Dana and I, years ago at The Meadow Brook Ball

    
     With permission from her, meet my good friend "D" aka Dana!   
                       (From the God Story: The Fork in the Road)

She is a beautiful friend and has encouraged me for YEARS!

               Thank you Jesus- He answered prayers!!!

You are Bigger and Greater God than we can imagine!

 I will be flying across country next month to spent time with my good friend Dana! I will get to hug you lady... yayyy!!!

5 days of adventure together... whoa whooo!

Love you Dana!

 I'm just a bit excited if you can't tell ;)!!! 

It has been a LONG time that I've been praying about this. 

IN. HIS. TIME. 

Thank You Lord!!!

-------------------

Thank You Jesus- Remember Mercy?!

 Since that post last Saturday, her once stagnant account of $120.00  has been increased by $371.70 for a total of $491.70! 
Oh, Thank You Lord! 
All glory goes to You! It's ALL Your doing!

 Let's not stop praying for her. Prayer is POWERFUL! 

Let's not forget her- watch Him- God WILL do Great and Mighty things to help this child of His!

 ------------------------

Thank you Jesus-  Regarding an affliction- asthma- I've had relief from it yesterday and today! Praise Jesus! 

No doubt, I have been feeling many prayers from many people.
 I can't thank each prayer warrior enough!

 I am breathing easier now. 

Jesus thank You for giving me air in my lungs!

Dana--- HAD to add this picture. It makes me laugh!

H.A.P.P.Y.     S.A.T.U.R.D.A.Y. !

What are you praising Jesus for today?
