August Flew By

When I saw that my last post was August 2 my first thought is now the title.  How do these days fly by so quickly?  August was very busy and now we are in school mode and missing farm mode!  Here are a few pictures from the month:


If you are from Michigan you will know this is the Mackinaw Bridge.  It is always fun to go across!



We were able to spend some time in Door County, Wisconsin where this Moravian church is located.  As I was downloading these pictures it occurred to me that I like white buildings.


                              

This is a picture my daughter took out the window as we were on the interstate.  It wasn't in Door County but it was on this trip!



                                                 
This is a replica of a Stave Church in Borgund, Norway.  They had a very nice prayer path with stopping places that had plaques with a Bible verse that you could meditate on then continue on to the next one.




Here is the interior.




This is one of the viewing towers we got to climb.  It was a beautiful view and kinda scary looking
down from the top:)



This is the view we had from the place we were staying in Ephraim.  Door County is a peninsula that has a number of small towns with some cherry orchards mixed throughout.   It has lots of interesting places to see and is a great place for biking or doing something on the water.  At the end of the peninsula we took the ferry to Washington Island.   As we were biking we actually found a weaving/knitting store:) and it just happened to have some yarn I needed!

These are just a few moments from the month of August.  They say time goes faster the older you get.  Hmm... I hope my next title won't be September Flew By!
