I Remember












Words from Ms Katie -


"I remember...

...our first trip to California when you girls were young and we tasted our first tacos. We ate them everyday of that trip."

...our first friends and being invited to their home when we moved to the States. We are still friends!" (Happy 70th wedding anniversary Rich and Vi!)

...when you slid through the stop at the bottom of the hill and I paid the ticket!"

...standing in the back of the pick up so we could reach to pick cherries with Paul. We won't be doing that again - none of us could climb into the truck."


...the words, 'Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name. How beautiful Your dwelling places."






We saw beautiful places today!


Blue, blue sky.

Hundreds of different greens.

Snow capped mountains.

Miles and of tight, two hands on the wheel S curves and switchbacks.

Road climbing to the sky.

Road heading downhill quickly - yes, Ms Katie, going down is my favorite!

Tall pines growing rightup to the edge of the road.

Small pines growing out of the rock.

Wildflowers - purple, yellow, orange and white.

Rushing water on one side - really rushing.

Train bed on the other side.

Narrow open bridges back and forth over the creek.

Dark tunnels.

Have I told you I really like driving down the hills??
