I'm still stuck on Day 4: Greeley, CO, through Wyoming, to Stockton, UT, 520 miles, 9 & 1/4 hours. I took a lot of photos that day....Stormy skies...
Mountain peaks and snow fences. I bet the winters out there are fearsome.
Cool rock formations.
I never tired of watching the sky.

We're in a waiting zone. Once again. Freddie Mac is trying to decide if we qualify to buy the house, or any house for that matter...not if we agree on a particular price or anything specific like that - just if we are "purchase-worthy". We know we are. We'll see what they decide, however. It seems like a "no-brainer", but in this journey we are on, we've learned that nothing is guaranteed. So, we're still praying.
I must confess I've had to battle some discouragement of late. We're reading Homer's The Odyssey for school, and there is mention in there of one guy, whose judgment was to roll a heavy stone up a hill, only to have it roll back on him, perpetually. Some days just seem like that - both in regards to the house, and to parenting, and to homeschooling, and to other things that try to weigh the heart down....you get the idea. It's at these times when I find I have to hunker down and hold on tightly.
"It is possible for us to mount into a state in which a doubt or a fear shall be but as a bird of passage flitting across the soul, but never lingering there." ~ C. Spurgeon
"Anything is possible if a person believes." Mk 9:23
"...nothing can ever separate us from His love." Rom 8:38
Holding on to what is true, no matter how I feel at the moment. May I become immovable, like the mountains.
(Sorry for the screwy format! Can't figure out what happened... and it won't undo!)

Wonderful clouds, Trish -- the Rockies do have some pretty fearsome storms in the winter, but the scenery is so gorgeous ~ ~ ~
Terrific photos..that is beautiful land!
So beautiful.
Trish you have the feeling to live the myth of Sisyphe . I hope no . But I have the impression you are facing a specie on the way of extinction but always present ; the shark !
Keep hope, my friend,
Love
Michel
