Road Trip to Saugatuck




It was sunny and 80 degrees today so we took an impromptu trip to Saugatuck after church. During today's service, the youth group re-enacted John 21, including serving the entire conrgegation fish & loaves of bread!! Since we gorged ourselves on this delicious snack, we skipped lunch and headed straight to the beach after church. For those of you unfamiliar with Saugatuck, it is a fun little resort town on Lake Michigan, 20 miles SW of Grand Rapids. There are many fun little trinket shops, art galleries, bed & breakfasts & countless retaurants. There is also about a mile of boardwalk to walk right on the shoreline. It was beautiful! We browsed the shops, had a yummy lunch at the Mermaid Inn and soaked up the rays while sauntering along the boardwalk. The kids had a blast & we are planning an overnight trip for this summer. Unfortunately, our trip was so spur-of-the-moment, that we did not charge the camera. We took these three pix and then the battery died!
