Notes From Vail (2)

Great day today.

Coffee and stuff just before a short time of worship songs. Guys and Gals split for teaching from Gary and Betsy Ricucci. Gary reminded busy planters that they are husbands and a husband's responsibility to his wife comes before his responsibility to his church. It wasn't a 'trip to the wood shed' as Gary said. And it didn't come across that way. In the busy and hurried life of a planter it is far too easy to take my wife for granted. Thanks Gary.

After our divided time, we got back together for a couple of songs then grabbed lunch. Amy and I took our lunch to the room and sat on the balcony together.

After lunch we headed to Vail Village where we walked and walked and walked! Shopping for the little ones!

There are really no words to describe the beauty of this part of God's creation... pictures could never capture the enormity of the mountains and all of the varied shades of color - grays, browns, greens, blues, whites. Just outside of our door is a roaring creek, right now resembling a small and violent river more than a creek - I suppose it is from the still melting snows.
Well - its off to dinner - Caleb I'll let you know who I see tonight ;)
