Goin' to see Owen!

We were so excited to be goin' to see Owen!  
Kyle got a new baby brother and it was time for us to go meet him.
Before we went to Hannah's, we drove up to see the Grand Canyon, drove down to see some Indian ruins, drove a beautiful drive through the Sedona area, stopped in to see the Desert Museum in Tucson, and seen miles of Saguaro Cactus.
Come along with us for an 'Adventure in Arizona'!

Road signs along the way.....








Follow that truck!

 Headin' to the Grand Canyon
see it in the distance?

We stayed the night at the Cameron Trading Post which was run by Navajo Indians


Faith had a hamburger on Navajo fry bread

Navajo Taco on fry bread...

A new morning...time to hit the road again to go see the 
Grand Canyon!

It was monsoon season while we were at Hannah's.
It rained everyday we were there.  
Lots of rain.

Yes I found me some more rocks....
I collect rocks from where ever I go...
Arizona has some pretty neat ones.

"My faith is stayed on that solid Rock. There's nothing can ever harm, when you're anchored to that place. The storms may shake and buffet, but my anchor holds within the veil. When a man or a woman has anchored against that rock. Hallelujah. There ain't nothing can ever shake you from it."

Just June


Here we go for a monthly blog post.  This one is just things that happened in June.  I went along with Faith on her trip to Still Waters to babysit my nieces and nephews while my sister and her husband helped at Still Waters.
While I was that close to Kentucky, I made a quick trip with Natalie to see my Mom and Dad.
Back home again we've been hiking and "just enjoying June."


Faith had a great time at Still Waters!



Heading off to work at Still Waters
on their wedding anniversary!


Their kids took me hiking....let's just say Thank the Lord 
I made it back to the house.....
whew!
Here is a deserted homestead back in their woods....


Natalie the feather finder...she finds them everywhere she goes!

 Every morning I took walks down 
their country road for Quiet Time.
The early morning dew, sun, fields, 
and animals were so neat to see and smell.

"Oh, if we would only get quiet and alone with God, how the dew would strengthen us, take the wilt out of us and make us fresh. Did you ever go into a rose garden early of a morning? Did you ever go into a honeysuckle bed early of a morning? And the whole air is just bathed with fragrance. 
Oh, how I love that.  56-1002E  Bro Branham

Guess what this coon was doing...
digging up the farmers corn seed and having a feast.
I seen this coon every morning.  
I also seen deer there and a turkey
in this same spot.


The early mornings were so relaxing....





They have  lots of cranes in that area!



Red wings sitting on the fence posts.

After camp was over, Natalie and I took a girls road trip to KY

The blue birds at mom and dad's are crazy.
As soon as you park they land on your mirrors 
and dirty up your car.  So my dad put bags on the mirrors 
to try to protect the car but they still came.

My beautiful Mommy

What's a trip to KY without stopping in to see Billy?
Look what he made his grandsons.
Fun!
A hillbilly double seater tricycle!


Natalie taking a swing into the woods....



Back home enjoying the early mornings at Eagles Nest....






Hiking at the old abandoned rail road bed at Goldmine.

This spot along the railroad bed was for coal.
See the stones laid up?


The water in the creek had a copper color.


The mountain laurel were blooming.
See the honeybee?


This guy was trying to get across the path.

Every wonder where the 'little people' live?
