bonnie scotland
December 26, 2006  |  Travels

i had a dream we were back in scotland a few days ago and ever since then my heart is breaking on how much i miss it. hanging out with the petticrews, the baines, rosemary, all the wonderful people we met in glasgow, and even taking roxy for a walk with mairi up the hills behind their house…climbing all the stairs in the city centre which left me out of breath the first two weeks, sleeping with the windows open, riding the buses, letting my clothes air dry, watching everyone else eat haggis, walking princes street and rose street at 1 in the morning taking it all in, praying with each step, looking in the windows of the flats lit up with life…knowing how much more life there is yet for that city…the city of dreams as geoffrey has dubbed it as we all sat up on salisbury crags, listening to james talk with such passion as he shares god’s vision for edinburgh. we must go back. soon.

  1. We miss you and Chris :-) Look forward to seeing you soon!

  2. You know places just get “into” our hearts. After visiting Reeser in Van-Freaking-Couver I had a similar dream. I was riding the sky train alone and some “American” couple were talking and I gave them some pointers and directions. That was the dream.

    Reeser had a field day with interpretting this he knows what I know – sometimes you just get “hung” on a place. Sounds like Bonnie old Scotland hung onto you guys.

    Hope you had a great Christmas and that your new year is fantastic!

  3. Ah yes…that is the feeling!

  4. Just found your site.
    Have a blessed New Year
