Trek

Last week Mike and I had the chance to go to go on trek with our stake. We were Ma and Pa to 10 youth. We were both nervous and a little weary, but it ended up to be one of the most spiritual experiences of our lives. We went to Martin's Cove and The Willie Place. They trully are Hallowed Ground. I have never been outdoors and felt so overwhelmed with the spirit, that it came out in sobs.  I am so thankful for my pioneer heritage and the faith, strength, and endurance they so naturally obtained.  


 The youth never ceases to amaze me.
 One of  3 river crossings. (my hubs is a romantic at heart)
 I love this picture, takes my breath away. (over 300 youth and leaders from our stake.)
Martin's Cove, a place of so much pain and loss; but also a place of much needed relief and rescue.
President Hinckley called it Wyoming's Temple.
