The redwood grove is one of God's most beautiful creations that touch all of your senses. In it you can see the tall, majestic redwood trees, hear the sound of birds and an occasional stream, smell the sweet aroma of flowers, feel the coolness of a soft breeze, and drink in the peaceful surroundings of nature.

Trip to Denver


We just returned from a week in Denver where we visited my parents and my brother and his wife, Skip & Lois. It was a beautiful day when we arrived last Tuesday. Then we had heavy snow that blanketed the area -- it was fun walking in the falling snow but challenging driving in it! The days following warmed up to the 40's and it was delightful! I had dinner with my friend, Ginna. We were able to visit with my son-in-law's sister, Mindy, who just returned from Bulgaria after 2 years in the Peace Corps. We also visited other residents in the retirement village where my parents live -- friends I have come to know in recent years, including one recently widowed. It's always an enjoyable visit. Thanks, Mom and Dad, for the wonderful accommodations and the treasured time together! We love you!
