Yesterday (Saturday) we went to Goldstream Park( C's friend came along with us). It is a huge park with miles of trails. We went later in the day, so we only walked a small part of the trail. There was a nature center where we were able to see what animals live in this park. Bears were one of them. We really wanted to see them! Also, Eagles live in this park. We did get to see Eagles. They were really far away, but the other day one flew right over our car. Do you believe that - right over the car. It was beautiful! When Uncle J comes in another week, we are going to take a picnic lunch and hike the long trail! Bring your walking shoes Uncle J! The trees were huge - bigger than huge. The picture on this blog shows how big some of the trees are. The kids were also introduced to a flower called stink cabbage. They looked so pretty until you get close, and then look out - skunk! Anyhow it was a great afternoon. We are really looking forward to going back and taking more time to explore.
Yes, it all began with these simple words, and it has ended up an adventure of a lifetime.

HI M AND C. WHAT AN AMAZING THING TO HAVE AN EAGLE FLY OVER YOUR CAR. I LOVE THE BIBLE VERSE FOUND IN ISAIAH 40:31... BUT THEY THAT WAIT UPON THE LORD SHALL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH; THEY SHALL MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES...
YOU BOTH GOT TO SEE THOSE EAGLES WINGS. HOW BLESSED. GOD MADE EVERYTHING FOR HIS PLEASURE. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL BIRD THE EAGLE IS.
MAYBE WHEN I COME AND VISIT I WILL SEE THE EAGLE TOO.
LOVE YOU MUCH.
Aren't those trees amazing?! I remember seeing trees like that when we visited a National Redwood Park in San Francisco. You truly can't imagine the size until you see them up close...right?!! Keep finding neat places to explore so that you'll have more to show us when we come your way!
