After our move to Charleston just 25 months ago, I can say that Josh and I know and believe that home truly is where the heart is. In that short two-year span we left our "first house" in Kentucky for the coastal low country of South Carolina...and we've made our "home" in quite a few places. From the original one-month stay at the Embassy Suites, to our precious two-bedroom island condo, and several other extended hotel stays in Seattle, we can now call home anywhere. So this past Spring when our friends approached us with an opportunity to rent their gorgeous home while they RV the country for a year, we didn't hesitate to accept. So the lovely home above became ours at the end of June and this is where we will be for a year. It's actually just a few blocks away from the condo we rented.
The home is still furnished by the owners, which is great with us because she has a lovely decorating style. Most of our belongings are stored in the garage.
We have no idea where we will go next summer when their travels are over. It could be down the street, across town, across the country or beyond. Either way, we are trusting God's direction and keeping an open mind to the ways He leads us. In the meantime, we will continue enjoying life on the island and thanking God for the beauty that surrounds.
I took this photo to practice with my new external camera flash. Too bad I didn't own this flash during the night sighting of wild elk at the Grand Canyon a couple months ago!
