Do you remember the TV show titled Star Trek?

No, I’m not talking the movie or movies. But, the TV show from the 1960s, the tongue-in-cheek “drama” starring William Shatner as Captain Kirk. There was also Bones. Scottie. And, Mr. Spock. That Star Trek.

One of my favorite parts of the show was when one of the characters needed to be transported to another location. They would say to Scottie, “Beam me up!” Or, “Beam me down!”

What I wouldn’t give to be “Beamed up” rather than sitting long hours in a car or plane.

Where’s my transporter? Anyone?

Travel.

Do you like to travel? I used to.

I’ve traveled for pleasure. I’ve traveled for work.

Too often, my work takes me away from home, usually for a night or two at the most. Hotels. Restaurants. Rental cars. Suitcases. Those become my unwelcomed companion.

In my travels, I’ve seen some exciting places. From the Atlantic to the Pacific. From Mexico to Canada. Our world is a beautiful place. God has created a beautiful world—and I can see His handiwork at ever turn.

But, I’ve decided that my favorite place to travel to is home.

To my wife.

Son.
