visiting yucaipa

Sarah and I were in California these last 10 days visiting supporting churches. Our first stop was Yucaipa; my hometown. (I think I forgot how beautiful the mountains could be) Primarily we were seeing people from my home church, but we also had the opportunity to see my grandma, aunt and my mom’s twin. We also visited Shauna; a Wisconsin friend now living in California. The unexpected occurred one evening when we drove home from in the falling snow! This happens about once or twice a year so it is a little funny that we left Madison hoping to find warm California sun only to have it snow. So we did what probably everyone else in California does, we go up to the mountains where it is thickest to visit this rarity.
