Had the DH take me on a trip this weekend and we went to upper michigan. Thought that it would be cooler by the lake. And it was great! The weather was good and it was much cooler. I was feeling better than I had in days because of the heat here.
Always wanted to go to the top of a lighthouse and we found one that lets you climb up and stand by the light. The DH was very concerned about me attempting it, it was almost 100 steps to the top. I told him that this was to be my mountain and I needed to do this. I also asked him if he'd forgive me because I wasn't sure how this was gonna go and he may have to pick up the pieces. That wonderful man said if I needed to do this, he was all for it no matter what. Well, I did it and it was worth it! But let me tell you, when we hit bottem, I really hit bottom. We got down ok, but the step out of the building brought me to my knees with the most severe cramps I have ever had. And today my legs hurt worse than they ever have. But I tackled my mountain!!!
This isn't to really tell you about the cramps, its to tell you that there is such beauty in this world that for some, when you pick your mountain....you won't regret it for any price you pay. I will have that beautiful memory always and I don't mind the price I'm paying for having seen it.
The second best thing I saw was a marsh pond that was covered in water lilies. Never saw so many in one place. It was georgeous.
I hope everyone had a good weekend!!
