We've passed it showing homes in Valpo hundreds of times over the last decade.
Recently,our nephew came to visit (and we had unseasonably cool drizzly weather)...so we decided to go to the
49 er Drive-in Theatre located @ 675 North Calumet Avenue in Valparaiso, IN 46383
This night brought back some of fond childhood memories of our family spending time together at a venue like this....i.e.- getting there early to get a front row parking spot, visiting the concession stand for popcorn & snacks, bringing a blanket or lawn chair to lounge on, throwing around the football in the grassy field while we waited for dusk, etc...
What's even better - they have their own FM radio station 88.5 and you don't have to put those old speakers in
your car anymore
LOL !
This is still a great way to enjoy a summer nite in NW Indiana!

When we moved from Lake County, Indiana (St. John) 12 years ago to Porter County, IN ....we were looking for lower property taxes, a home with some land and goods schools.
We ended up with all of that plus some...the added amenities of enjoying a beautiful year round recreational community - SHOREWOOD FOREST - and all of the perks that go with it!
Besides parks, playgrounds, tennis courts and basketball courts...there are nature trails, walking paths, and a Lake -> Lake Louise. The Community Pool and Clubhouse plus Neighborhood Sandy Beach are awesome this time of year!
If you enjoy BOATING and FISHING and Water Sports (tubing or water-skiing ) as our family does....this is a great place to live!
It's nice to live in a vacation like setting every day!
Yesterday, we remembered the camera - so here are a few shots from the lake :) 
Makes time off before or after work relaxing to go for a boat ride and watch the blue heron. look closely->
We have a Beautiful All Brick Home For sale across the street from the lake with 4 bedrooms, 4 fireplaces, a scenic large wooded lot ...FYI - there are public areas to dock and launch your boat for those that live off the lakefront - call us @ 219-405-1232 if you'd like to see this spacious home!

"Reach Out and Touch Some-body's Hand, Make This World a Better Place"....Yes, We Can !
@ Christ Lutheran Church in Valparaiso, IN the Ladies Summer Bible Study has a participant from Singapore, Asia via SKYPE !
Seems like just a few weeks ago, I blogged about a new Ladies Bible Study starting up here in Valparaiso, IN at my church. If you live around here, you'll know the one, with all big construction trucks and new building going on at the Corner of Campbell St. & Vale Park Road.
On the 1st night of this study, one of the ladies mentioned that she had a friend overseas who may like to join in. Since they already communicate via SKYPE,and our Church has wireless internet access, the technology was in place to, as the song says.....reach out!
We extended her an invitation to join us via Laptop with built in video camera and last night that invite was graciously accepted.
It Was AWESOME ! ...but then, so is our GOD :)
Connections like this that foster fellowship around the globe are priceless!
Just look at the ->Google Mapof how far apart these 2 cities are!
Luckily, the time zone differences meshed for this particular study. As the evening sun faded here in Valpo, we discussed the lessons to be learned from the story of Lot's Wife, with a sister who saw morning sunlight in Singapore. We all laughed, as we discovered the similarities in weather. It was 90 and humid in Asia and we've had a hot few days of summer lately in NW Indiana as well!
What a blessing to be able to come together and study The Word no matter how many miles separate us....
Can I hear an Amen ? !
The world is getting smaller, thanks to technology and social media! I pray those reading will be inspired to reach out and connect to others around the globe using these new means to share the Message...yes you can!
Enjoy the song & video ->
