Strolling Through Lakeside

24 Comments/ 1301/ 1

I just got back from a week at my happy place – Lakeside, Ohio. I have shared Lakeside with my readers so many times over the years and the history that I have with this place runs deep. Growing up going to East Ohio Annual Conference for the United Methodist Church in Lakeside was always the highlight of the summer. The years that I was not able to go I always felt like something was missing.

Last year my family spent the week together here after we had a lovely memorial service for my mom. It was indeed a special time. This year it was only the 4 siblings and spouses but it was every bit as special because we got to spend time together.

Of course there was a lot of walking around, snapping pictures of things I have taken pictures of many times before and some new things. It was a lovely trip and one that I will keep in my internal scrapbook forever.

Everyone needs a little rest and vacation now and then and this trip was definitely that for us. Being with all of my siblings and spouses was a bonus and one that I don’t take for granted as many don’t have their siblings to be with. I am grateful every day for my family and love that we all get along and love each other.

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
