Karin and I have been pleased with our counselor for the Quiet Waters Intensive. We are talking about some good and important things. It's good for us to have a "25-year tune-up," and I would recommend to anyone that counseling can be a very good option -- especially if you begin to have marriage trouble... don't wait! Get help right away while the issues are small. Anyway, we are having some good, productive conversations.
Karin has been longing to get to the mountains (she's never been to the mountains before), so today, after our counseling session, we headed to the mountains. We went to Morrison, CO, and we got a tour of Dinosaur Ridge. We got to see and touch dinosaur bones and footprints from millions of years ago (above). We also went from there to Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater (below). The red rocks are some magnificent rock formations protruding from the earth. Among the rocks, the CCC built an amphitheater (completed in 1941), where concerts are held all summer long. The season begins with an Easter sunrise service, which would be exceptionally beautiful, I'm sure.
From there we drove on part of the "Lariat Loop," through Kitridge and Evergreen, along some winding mountain roads, through rocky, craggy, valleys, and through evergreen forests. It was beautiful, and Karin enjoyed the trip.
On the way home, we drove past a little shop where I might be able to resolve any mid-life crisis I may be having! :-)
The weather has been good -- cloudy and cool, but only a few sprinkles of rain. The forecast is the same for the next two days -- the weekend looks sunny and warm. God has provided!
