Seeking Authentic Voice

The road traversed long, sometimes narrow and steep. Oh! So very high up - and, then - down. Winding along through canyons of red and grey stone with scraggly trees and shrubs. Leaving my car behind, for a bit of a hike, I wandered along a well worn trail. Ancient land, Indian land, land of migrating wild cats and who knows what else. Land that my father lives on. Land that one day will be "mine" or so he says in his trust. Land that really belongs to no one and yet, everyone.

I have been away from internet access for a number of days, which is weird for me. I have missed my daily blogging - reading the blogs of my friends and posting the various things I am pondering. And, on this trip there has been much to ponder, but I'll write more about that later....for today, while I sit in WiFi free hotspot at a laundramat, I want to post some photos of my drive yesterday from Southern Utah to Salt Lake City. Suffice it to say it was an awe-filled day.
