The day started out nice - went for an 18 mile run!
As much as I love my running group, it was nice to be by myself. There is a certain glory in being by yourself, early in the morning, with hardly any traffic, running on backroads. The world is waking up at the time that I run, and it is very cool to watch the sun rise, birds start chirping, and the environment just come alive. I was surrounded by God's glorious creation yesterday morning (as I am all the time every day, but like I said, there is something special about early morning...).
After that, we went to church, and what a wonderful church family we have. I felt very moved (perhaps it started on my run) and very emotional during the worship service yesterday. I can't describe in words how it feels to know that God is in ALL things - and works through ALL things, for the good of those who love him.
After church we zoomed down to Arcade to redeem a voucher (Groupon, or something) for our annual Arcade/Attice Railroad Train ride. In a few years, Adam probably won't be as excited to go, but for now, he still loves it!

On the way home, I started thinking about dinner. I wanted some roasted cauliflower with parmesan and bacon. I knew I had all the ingredients for it...except cauliflower. So I was watching the farm stands on the way, but didn't see cualiflower, or see it advertised. So when I got home I went to our local Sav-A-Lot and got some fresh (not frozen) cauliflower. Now granted, it was Dole brand, but it was the best I could do on short notice, and I didn't go to Wal-Mart!
