up on the roof

Our condo stands three stories high but the elevator goes up to four......that would be the roof.

Last evening about nine o'clock Bubba said, "Let's go up on the roof and see if we can see the fireworks on River Street in downtown Savannah."

Now the roof is not for public use. When the elevator stops, there are two locked doors which must be traversed to gain access to the roof.

Feeling like this jaunt was completely out of character for my husband, I immediately said, "Let's go!"

Amazingly both of the supposedly locked doors were unlocked and we spilled guiltily out onto the tarred roof where we were treated to an amazing view of not only the River Street show, but also the fireworks at Hilton Head.

"Can we stay up here forever?"

Now I quite often write about those unexpected blessings from the Lord. Out of the blue an amazing firewworks show started up right on the beach in front of us.....incredible!!!! It was like we were a part of them.....that we could reach out and touch their beauty.

Blessed again with a lovely, beautiful, surprise up on the roof on a balmy, moonlit night with a gentle breeze.

Thank you God......
