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!
