Sketchers In The Snow

   Today, we drove probably six hours before we arrived in a whole other world.  The temperatures dropped, we donned our sweaters, our jackets, whatever we could find (my son was only wearing thin shorts)...  Let me just say...Shape ups weren't meant for snow.  As I look out the window, I am literally close to tears at the beauty of this place.  I feel...overwhelmingly close to God here.  My knees, my back, and even my wrists are aching from the arthritis, but I don't mind...  It is all worth it...just to be here.  Today is Wednesday.  Friday is our 16th wedding anniversary.  I cannot think of a more romantic place to celebrate...Tomorrow we go exploring... :^)
