God's Beauty

Chiricahua National Monument

This weekend we decided it was time to go on a road trip and explore the area. We discovered Chiricahua National Monument park. We did not come prepared for colder weather. It was pretty cold and windy high up in the mountains ( 6500 feet ). If you come to visit us we'll have to take you, you'll be in
awe!
Entering the park we had no idea that it would be this amazing.
The path winding around the mountain.
God's version of Leggos. I can't help think about the flood and this rock gently landing here.
Our family, enjoying the time together.
Even this dead tree was beautifully sculpted.
Every curve in the path held new surprises and Awesome views that made you amazed at Gods Glorious creation.
Ace said it looked like a fist.
A village of rocks
We ended our hike at the Grotto then traced
our path back to a picnic dinner.

* These pictures are just a few of the many beautiful views we saw on our one-hour walk. It was hard to choose which pictures to share, and of course, the pictures do not do the real view justice!

Wow! It looks like a great place to visit! I'm glad you're making some time for sightseeing while you're out there.
