If you love God's creation, you need to prove it!

We know, we know, living in Colorado, having beautiful weather all year round, it is just impossible not to get outside. We think so. Today, Corneliu and I were talking about not spending money and going away from Colorado to be on vacation; we are so thankful to have these beautiful mountains here, and great friends who have the same passion like we do for hiking and enjoying outside. These are our vacations and we have them pretty often. It doesn't cost much at all, just gas to get to these places.

I think Cassandra will be a geologist. Once we let her out of the backpack, she runs straight to rocks, weeds, sticks, and has to pick them up and show them to us. She also loves walking. I think she walked about a mile today. We hope that she will love nature when she grows up.

Frank and his girlfriend Judy enjoyed today with us. Cornel knows Frank from Discovery Caynon, he is the IT guy. These are great people to hang out with.

Of course, our great friend Karri spent all day long with us. She always wants to carry Cassandra because she wants to build more muscle. And trust me, you are carrying about 35 pounds on your back, it is a great way to stay in shape. Karri is such a great and lovely person. We enjoy the time that we spend with her.
