One of the highlights of every day was an early morning walk on the beach. We walked mile after mile after mile… on Wednesday alone we did a total of six!! Somehow it just doesn’t seem laborious when you are walking with your best friends and are experiencing the beauty and refreshment of the ocean, sky, sand, wind, and sun. I carried the camera a lot and had fun with different shots…

Sing unto the Lord a new song, and His praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof… Let them give glory unto the Lord, and declare His praise in the islands.” (Isaiah 42:10, 12)

Some of my favorite individual/small group/misc. scenery shots from the week:

 Our little ones wrote lots of messages for us on the sand. This one: "I love Mama!"A baby shark we found :)

…the Lord is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king… He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by His wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. When He uttereth His voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and He causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of His treasures.” (Jeremiah 10:10, 12-13)

    Isn’t the beach amazing? We can tell you all had too much fun. Loved seeing your photos of the SC beach – a bit different than the FL beach.
    Sometime ya’ll need to trek down to Miami to check out some of God’s beauty down here in the tropics. Thanks for the delightful photo essay of your rest and fun perceived through your eyes. (Someone needs to get together with Mrs. Keller with a camera, sunrises/sunsets, and a beach for a photo session. We probably won’t see them the whole day!) :)
    The colored condos are a great idea; when we walk the beach we have to take careful note which is our place or when we return it is easy to pass it by! The flip flops were a wonderful idea Darlene- we can tell you are a well-seasoned Mommy. :)
    Enjoy your memories!

    Wow what a wonderful area! The pictures are fabulous – both the people and the scenery! There’s certainly talented photographers on the team. Thanks for sharing your vacation!

    Oh yes – happy birthday Jessica – a day late. Hope you had a wonderful day yesterday!
    Love to the whole team!!

    It looks and sounds like all of you had a fun and
    very relaxing vacation together! We are glad you were able to get away, even though we did miss you on May 22nd! The pictures are great! We can only imagine that there were many more memories made than there were pictures. Maybe we’ll be able to see you all sometime this summer!

    Thanks for the photo “tour” of your vacation. With so many pictures, I could almost hear the crash of the waves upon the beach, feel the wind bowing.
    Wow! A baby shark? That’s something you don’t see everyday.

    Stunning photos there Neely Team! What I appreciate is the evidence of a family simply enjoying being together – Great shot there of Samuel & Mrs. Neely. Friends may come and go but it is our family that we will have the joy of living with for life – they should always be a priority. Thank you for the inspiration and reminder!
