I'm really bummed I forgot my camera cord....we've seen some incredible things!

It's pretty crazy to think that this time last week we were in Minnesota. Today, we are in a climate completely opposite of Minnesota, Arizona. We spent the night last night in a town on a Navajo Indian reservation. Coming from Mesa Verde in Colorado, we are headed towards the Grand Canyon today. It's a beautiful drive, but a somber reminder of the reality of Native American life (most of the drive is through reservations).

Since Minnesota, we have been to the Badlands and Black Hills in South Dakota. Next we stopped in Colorado Springs to visit some friends and family. From there, we headed toward the Great Sand Dunes National Park. Everything we've seen has been quite incredible, and the weather has been absolutely perfect too. We are so thankful for this opportunity to get out and experience God's creation.

We will start to slowly head back towards Tennessee either tomorrow or Monday. I'm not ready for the long drive through Texas, but excited to get home and get together our final preparations for Bolivia.
