One morning I was waiting in the church parking lot for the rest of the group to arrive, enjoying my Starbucks and thinking about the hike for the day. And there it was, this beautiful sunrise.
It reminded me of the words of Clement of Alexandra who said; "Jesus Christ, by coming into this world, has changed the sunsets of time into the sunrises of eternity." Everything on earth and in God's plan is aimed at eternity, and it begins here on earth.

Sky Pond
Sky Pond was a terrific hike in Rocky Mountain National Park. We parked our cars near the Bear Lake trail head with all the other tourists and took the shuttle up to the trail head. We started hiking and very soon the trail we wanted took us away from the crowds and deep into the beautiful park.
During our hike we saw a cow elk standing by the lower lake. At the lake we enjoyed a nice quiet lunch and watched the climbers going up Petit Grepon and the Sabre.
