high desert beginnings

Best Comment of the Day
After only an hour Elizabeth says, "This is a LONG trip."  ...."you have no idea sister!"

Fun Thoughts
HOV-2 lane.  "you have no idea"

During the first three hours we stopped three times.....this gives you an idea of the pace.

Wilderness Rest Stops
These are EMERGENCY stops that are made when someone must go to the bathroom NOW regardless of how long they have  "had the urge"  So what does a mother of 5 boys and a toddler do when everyone else goes either in the bushes or on a potty chair?......."You have no idea"  note.....after another 5 miles these wilderness spots are always followed by a state of the art rest stop that we do not seem to see. 

Moments of sheer abandon
family rosary and wilderness rest spots.  Thank you Jesus that you resurrect both the soul and the body!
