Climb The Mountains
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves. ~John Muir
kauai, Hawaii October, 2011
The island of Kauai, Hawaii has many wonderful trails and hikes, at many different skill levels. With so much to do we were only able to fit in this casual but beautiful trail. The whole island is breathtaking.
Chiricahua National Monument Hike, Oct.29, 2009-Arizona
The Chiricahua's are definitely off the beaten path but well worth the effort taken to get there. This is is one of my all time favorite hikes. We spent the night in Willcox at a great Holiday Inn, then hiked the next day.
If you go do stop at the ranger station. They will help you decide which hike to take, depending on how much time you have, what you want to see and your skill level.
Chiricahua National Monument is located 120 miles southeast of Tucson.
My photos are in random order, I had so many to choose from...
Wild Turkeys
This was the weekend of the first anniversary of our son's death. It helped to get away to deal with our grief. My husband and son had taken a wonderful trip to Southern Az. so it seemed an appropriate travel destination. In the Chiricahuas we felt the emotional cleansing that comes from nature. It was a beautiful place to shed tears, remember our son, reflect, pray and contemplate God's love.
“And he said, The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; the God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour;.."
-2 Sam 22:2-3
Chiricahua National Monument is truly one of the National Park Service secret treasures. If you are willing to drive the 37 miles off I-10, you will be surprised to discover a mountain wonderland of trees, wild animals, and the amazing balanced rock and pinnacles that make this place so unique. A must do for anyone who loves hiking and adventure!
