Our trip back to Michigan and Chicago was a good one, though it came andat the beach went far too fast. We didn’t even come close to seeing everyone we wanted to visit, in spite of our best scheduling efforts.

Even though I know most of you would like a day-by-day recap of the entire trip, my random thoughts will have to suffice:

(1) Toll roads are dumb.

(2) The Ohio Turnpike walks all over the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

(3) There was something comforting in seeing flat, sprawling land again.

(4) I forgot how many lakes there are in Michigan. Beautiful.

(5) It was refreshing to hear some solid Reformed preaching again. :-)

(6) Although things in Michigan still feel more familiar than Virginia, it was good to get back to our house after the trip and have it feel like “home.”
