Have you ever been somewhere historic? Have you ever been somewhere calm? Are you able to take time to relax a little and take in what our wonderful world has to offer?
I love to travel and I have been blessed to be able to see some wondrous sights. Growing up in Washington State, I had only seen sights of our nation’s capitol in photos and on tv. I recently had the opportunity to visit Washington DC and tour the grand monuments. I did not know what to expect, what I saw left me in awe. Standing at the base of the Lincoln Monument was spectacular. Seeing the black wall, watching families find names of fallen loved ones and taking paper and pencil over the names to be able to take something tangible home, was an experience I will never forget.
On a recent trip to the Oregon Coast with my family, I watched sea lions in a natural cave , the noise they made was deafening but fascinating. Watching as waves swell and pick sea lions up onto cliff edges is beautiful. I was lucky to be able to capture some diving off the cliff into a large wave as it is going by. What a beautiful site I was able to share with my family.
There are so many beautiful things to experience in life. I hope that everyone is able to take the time and slow down a little to take it in.
