After all the transitions going on this year we decided to take an intentional break from it all. We were able to spend most of the month of August in Montana. We had two primary goals: 1) Read; and 2) Hike.

Some of my favorites from our time were:

• Paradise Lost by Milton
• Treasure Principle by Alcorn
• The Chronicles of Prydain by Alexander
• Confessions by Augustine
