Notes:
"Over a lifetime, beyond all the trials and tribulations, joys and happiness, there are special times. Doing a handstand on the beach may be the highlight of life for some, for others it is doing a loop the loop in a WWII bi-plane or success in building a home or bagging a large buck. The key to being able to label and to treasure your “handstand on the beach” is to look at life in a positive manner, to use your gift of resilience and ask yourself, “What is my handstand on the beach?” Pastor Penny Hansel believes everyone should share their handstand stories for the generations to come. She has had a multitude of stories, born in rural Iowa during the depression, a young bride in England, owner of a fishing camp with am husband living with MS, schoolteacher, and her call and life as a United Methodist Pastor. This book is filled with life experiences and a determination to embrace one's destiny." - provided by publisher.
