On our way up to Colorado we stopped at Palo Duro Canyon to stretch our legs and refresh our road haze clouded minds.
We will be participating in a church plant in Denver so the last several weeks have been super busy as we have been packing for the move. The opportunity to get out into God’s creation was a welcome refreshment from sorting through all our belongings.
For the first time in our married life Stacie and I finally have all of our earthly belongings in one spot: the back of a U-Haul truck! But the front of the U-Haul isn’t the most comfortable ride so by the time we got to the park we felt rather travel weary. We decided to take a 5.75 mile hike to loosen up all the kinks in our systems- and to see the Lighthouse formation in Palo Duro Canyon.
Palo Duro Canyon did the trick: we were very refreshed and encouraged.
As we were hiking back out in the cool of the day, I was struck with the wonder of being a child of God enjoying the creation of God. We are truly blessed!
