In the nick of time

Wow. I guess it’s a good thing I left Denver and Seattle when I did. It’s 50mph and raining in Seattle and a blizzard that’s supposed to last for 2-3 days in Denver. I’m currently in Sedona, AZ where it’s in the 20-30’s degrees, but it's sunny and beautiful. I called my brother and sister-in-law, as well as my friends in the Midwest for the holidays, and they’re housed up at home or at work. I couldn’t get in touch with my friends from work in Denver, because they’re stuck at work instead of going home this morning to sleep and come back. If I stayed in Denver a little longer, I would be stuck there as well. Praise you, Jesus, and I pray for those that ARE still in Denver. Karen, is your son back in Denver? How's he doing?

As for pictures in Sedona, I figured I’d wait until I get back home to share the Sedona pictures. They are beautiful, though. Here's a preview

Happy holidays!!

Hello, everyone.

The holidays are here!! I have 2 more nights to work in Denver, then my assignment here is done. Then, I'm off to Sedona, AZ to vacation for a week with my parents, and then to Las Vegas where my parents live. I'm taking 3 weeks off before I start my next assignment in Texas. It's awesome when you take that first step towards God's direction, everything just falls into place even before you take the next step. My Texas RN license came through, my paperwork with my company is completed and sent, and all I'm waiting for now is my apartment information.

I still have time to sightsee just little more. Cesilia and I went to the Red Rocks park and amphitheater recently. It's real cool just driving to the Red Rocks Amphitheater. All around you, you see pastures, and sticking out of the green hills is a large rock formation of red rocks. You wouldn't even know there's an amphitheater in the middle of that formation until you get closer. Now this is an awesome sight to see. No one can move these rocks into place to make this amphitheater. It's a natural formation that makes a great acoustic sound for concerts, and open to a clear sky. I have GOT to come back here for the summer to listen to a concert play here. In the 1930's, early 1940's, Civilians Conservation Corps chiseled out the seating in the rock formation, and used the chiseled rocks to make the stage of the amphitheater. (hey, I LOVE history.)

After touring the amphitheater, and climbing around the red rocks, we went to this restaurant called the Fort. It was built like a frontier fort, but once we walked in, it was a whole different scenery. The Fort's specialty meals were game meats (Buffalo, Elk, Venison, Quail, etc). I had what's called, "The Fort's game plate" that had quail, Buffalo, and elk for dinner. It tasted good, but the Elk tasted like liver (is that what it's supposed to taste like?) I also had broiled sheep cheese with baked bread slices. Cesilia wasn't as brave, and stuck with the Chicken. It was free range, so it was still considered different ;-)

I have one more sightseeing day, and I'm hoping to go to Colorado Springs again, and visit the places I missed when I was there last with my parents. So more pics to come after the Red Rocks trip.

Talk to you soon
