Worship on the rocks!

This picture Don took today when we went hiking in the Snow Canyon. What a misnomer! It was HOT there! The mountains in one direction are white rock, so they look like snowy mountains from the distance. The rocks behind me are red, though. Notice the ripples in the rocks below my LEFT arm. That looks like swept sand, but it’s petrified sand. It’s as hard as rocks. You can see a white stripe through the mountain above my left arm; interesting, huh? Man, God does amazing things!

We hiked around as if we were youngsters and had a great time. We had a bunch of ice in the cooler in the car, so it saved our lives when we got back there and ate on it for the next couple of hours that it took to cool us! It was awesome to hike around in God’s pure handiwork, though. It was interesting how quiet it was out there. Don got another picture of me right beside a lizard; we’ll put him on the blog one day soon.

We had a great breakfast and visit with Jeff, Jeanette, Janelle and Jessie this morning before we took off for the mountains. We see so little of them, so it’s really fun to sit down and spend some time with them. We thank God for this time and for a great day in the mountains. It amazes us how much He always does for us and how varied His creativity is. We sure thank Him for keeping us safe as we climbed around the mountains and drove today!
