Lost and found

I was looking forward to a long-overdue two-week vacation first seeing my dad on Long Island, New York, and then traveling north to enjoy some swimming and sun.

Long Island has beautiful seaport villages, and on my first morning, I strolled down Main Street, eager to savor the simplicity of small-town life. I sat on the dock, soaking up the sun and thanking God for this wonderful opportunity. But a few hours later I suddenly noticed my wallet was missing. In a panic I retraced my steps. No wallet. It had contained all of my vacation money, my driver’s license, and several credit cards.
