Climb every mountain...

I feel like I've climbed several mountains in the past week, both literally and figuratively. Obviously, the move across the United States to the beautiful state of Colorado has been a bit of an adventure (more on that later). I'm adjusting pretty well and I'm very excited to share pictures and stories. After several failed attempts, I created this blog (welcome, by the way) and now feel more technologically stupid for the endeavor.

And, just this morning, I climbed an actual mountain (well, only part of the way up. stupid lack of oxygen) with my new friend, Diana. It was a beautiful small mountain called Crosier Mtn. near Estes Park that afforded some great views of beautiful peaks and valleys. Part of the way up, we decided to stop and catch our breath and found this great rock formation to sit on that overlooked some pretty fabulous scenery. (Part of the view from our rock ^) I'm not usually one for silence but sitting up there around 8:30 in the morning, it was incredible to just hear nothing. It was so peaceful and definitely a place I will return to with my Bible because God was just so evident there.

Even though I've only been here for 3.5 days, I have already fallen in love with Greeley and the mountains and Colorado. My overall consensus, despite all the hard work I'm going to have to do for school, is that I'm really going to enjoy living here. I truely feel that this is where God wants me to be, where I can grow and learn a whole lot about myself and enjoy some adventure all at the same time!
