A Fun Place to Visit - Gig Harbor

In Gig Harbor...Posing for the girls!

We all have our favorite kinds of places to visit. Some people like big cities, lots of lights, activities, crowds, noise and lots of things to see. Some people like the water, sand on the beaches and solitude...some like the mountains, forest, quiet and isolation.

I believe that it is important to get out and see the world around you...And the world around you is not necessarily across the country or across the globe. It can be checking out the beauty in your own town or the areas, towns, and cities right next door.

If beauty is inside you...If it is a part of your perspective and it is the lens that you see the world through, then you'll find beauty no matter where you are.

This is an incredible and beautiful earth that God has given us to live on, and I want to visit lots of different places in it. I have places near and far that are favorites for me...big and small cities...but my favorites are small, quaint, cozy, unique places...quiet with just enough people, places, and shops to be interesting...I like eclectic places and things...

One favorite place near me (In fact there are a lot of beautiful and cool places near me) is a city called Gig Harbor...What a fun cute place...Great boutiques, antique shops, galleries, restaurants...It's quaint, with unbelievable water views, walkable and easy to get around...Great for a quick get away, down time etc...David and I have driven there several times just to hang out and have fun...I also took my daughter there for an overnight birthday stay at a cute B&B...

A few weeks ago when my friend Lisa was visiting me, I took her and Erica over for a few hours of fun... If you live in this area and are looking for a cute, fun, quick place to visit and unwind then Gig Harbor could be the place for you...

What's your favorite sort of place to visit? Go take a trip and check out the beauty all around...Whether it's far away or right in your own backyard!

love and blessings
