We are enjoying the cabin at the end of another season. The leaves are changing and the night air is cool and refreshing. The scrub oak are gold and gorgeous. We can see the effects of the heavy rains this year. Lots of washouts and gulleys. It’s amazing that this place is so peaceful and relaxing, even after coming here for 30 years. I am grateful to the Lord that we have been able to keep this beautiful place for all to use. It’s so much fun to read over all the entries in this journal and see how much everyone enjoys being here.
Included in this visit: Roland, Nellie, Jennie, Jodi and her friend, Dave Pattberg, and Jana. Yesterday Jon and Jolynn came up for the day. She can’t stay overnight since she is due to deliver any day now. It was great to have them all here. Jim and Barbie came last week for conference so couldn’t come again this time.
This morning we made delicious “cabin breakfast” had scriptures, then went on a nice hike out to Echo Canyon overlook. It was so beautiful. We found turkey feathers and turkey tracks. I did a little sketching around the cabin and on the trail.
