. Lake side view .

 One thing we LOVE about our city is that it is the home of several lakes!

On one Sunday afternoon, we went for a ride to the lake side with some friends, and we got to see it up close and personal. 

It was gorgeous-

 There were boaters everywhere, this cute little island out in the middle, and lots and lots of people just out enjoying the weather as well

 My friend, Akashmih, is really a lot of fun.

She speaks both Hindi & English... and best of all LOVES TO LAUGH!

(Levi got too comfy and fell asleep on the ride over, so he didn't get to see this view :))

The ironic part of our "outside lakeside" hang out, was that during our drive back (on bikes) a nice shower decided to come sweeping across the lake- Do ya see it?

It actually was a fun ending to the day, because I have always wondered what folks here do when they are out on bikes and the rain comes... That day I found out-

You quickly pull over at the closest covering, which sometimes is a pretty small place w/ not much around it ...  meaning, you have LOTS of other company who had the same idea :)

It made me giggle seeing us all crammed in this little ice cream parlor.

*There are lots of folks that live near the lake that don't know the Father's love... 

Would you take a minute and pray that one day they would?

Thanks y'all!
