We spent Memorial Day weekend with the kids on Mt. Hood, where we went sledding, threw snowballs and played mini-golf during the few minutes the sun peeked through the clouds. It wasn’t exactly this California girl’s ideal way to kick off the summer, but like I’m fond of telling my children: you get what you get and you don’t throw a fit.

What we got this morning was a very down-to-earth church service in one of the world’s most beautiful settings. Check back soon for our reviews of the Church on the Mountain.
