Surf City USA

While we were in California last year visiting Global Recordings Network, we had an opportunity to visit some of the beaches. I took this image of a lone surfer walking the beach at Surf City USA. I have heard all of the songs by the Beach Boys and Dan and Jean as I was growing up but I never thought I would ever have the opportunity to walk on these beaches myself. It didn't turn out to be anything grand but it was in a way a dream come true. As a kid I dreamed of living in California one day as I grew older the dreams became more grandiose as I had my eye on foreign travel. A dream is still a dream and I am very happy that I was able to partially share this dream with my children. I still may make it to California as I believe that God is calling me to Global Recordings Network as a full time missionary. I don't know when and though I am ready to go now I am trusting that His time is the right time.
