A great day of encouragement at church, huge waves and big air at the lake (tried a new one out today – photos to come), grilled chicken with the family, and finished the day with a trek up to Michigan to join with thousands for the fireworks on Lake Michigan.
This was my first time photographing fireworks, but several of them came out pretty well. The night was beautiful – warm, but the cool breeze from the lake kept it comfortable. I could not believe how many people were there, and the mass exodus following the show was phenomenal, but all in all, we got in and out pretty easily and even stopped by Cabana’s in the process.
Reminded of the price paid for our freedom – not only by the men who served the United States protecting and fighting, but the price paid by Jesus Christ – my ultimate protector and the One who does battle in the heavenlies on my behalf.
