Spiritually Healthy

As promised, here's part 2 of my travels (if you missed part one, click here ).

Since my last post, lots has happened.  I am an aunt again (can't remember if I told you that or not, ha!), I visited two new states (New Mexico and Arizona), saw the Grand Canyon, saw snow, stayed at a beautiful camp in Arizona, met amazing people, and became certified to teach yoga with  Holy Yoga ! Finally, I am here, writing out a fun new post for you to enjoy (I hope).  If I had a word to describe my time out west, it would be breathtaking.   E very little "new" thing that my eyes beheld, simply took me aback with its beauty - God's beauty that He sprinkled on with such delicate and thoughtful manner. I took so many pictures (and not nearly as many as I had intended) that this post had to be split into two (maybe even three) parts!  So make yourself a cup tea (or coffee), sit back and enjoy this little getaway.  Enjoy, mi
