Our family is totally blessed to be able to enjoy some much needed quality time together. We are so thankful to our Bellwood Faith Family for the opportunity to take a sabbatical and do some things we wouldn't normally get to do.We recently returned from Colorado. It was a memorable visit. I was taking pictures like crazy trying to capture the beauty of everything, but it's hard to do. Pictures and words just can't describe the magnitude of God's good creation - everything from Pikes Peak to the Garden of the Gods. It was all breath-taking!
One of the unique features of Colorado that will literally take your breath away is the change in altitude. We went from about 1,500 ft in elevation (Milford) to almost 10,000 ft at Rocky Mtn.
Mennonite Camp. It definitely took some adjusting. We had to go slow the first two days. I was ready to go climb Pikes Peak the first day, but that would not have been a smart thing. We did get to drive up the parkway and made it to the summit. Once again, you had to go slow in order to adjust the the new elevation which is 14, 115 feet. (It used to be 14,110 but they said it had "grown" five feet). Once we were there, the view took your breath away. We could see for miles! We could even see the curvature of the Earth.
Wow - God is certainly the Master Artist. We were in awe of His creation.
