West Fork Teanaway Trip #2



There are so many things to explore here! Not enough time, and so we'll have to go back again, but most likely not this summer. I love God's creation and how our bible is relevant today! If we just look at His creation, we see His existence. Here, we can climb to the top of the mountain and we find sandstone rock every where,  caves shaped by water (did I mention at the TOP of the mountain?) Clearly this was all under water at one time. The result of a flood. Beach pebble solidified in some of the layers, just amazing!!!

Romans chapter 1 verse 20 says :
"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."

By what has been made. Even though we can't see Him, because by seeing all His creation, we are without excuse it says, meaning you can not deny our Lord!



Driving to camp!
                                              High lining in camp.  Leila likes to lay down.

Heidi relaxing in a hammock, waiting for the burgers to be done. It's hard work setting up camp!



Payton.  Isn't he cute??  Love our boy.

  Leila, our first day ride at camp.  We were there 4 nights and 5 days.
 Taking a break, taking our shoes off and putting our feet in the creek.  Great picnic spot.
 Riding out.

These cuties.  Precious kiddos.
A horse and his girl.
COWS!!!!   Free range cows!  We went through them!  My new Arab mare handled it like a champ!  She was a bit nervous, but kept her wits about her the entire time.  Now this....this is the makings of an Endurance horse!  We have a ride here in the PNW where you most likely will run into free range cattle.  We'll be ready for it!

This was the 2nd day of riding.  We rode up to Window Rock. 

Pretty Cool, right???  
 See the 3 big rock pillars?  We call them the 3 trolls.
Swimming after a long ride in the heat, the water was amazing!

Cray fish.  

Look what we found!  A Bull snake.  We'd usually see the tiny ones sunbathing themselves on the rocks by the river.

Hiking this day.  Our Payton had a gall sore, so we hiked where the horses couldn't ride and found where we could connect into other horse trails.

 An amazing rock face to hike!  The views were AMAZING!
 Our Fearless leader Gayle.  Probably one of the coolest ladies I know!


 Amazing adventures!


 Blue eyed beauty
 Amazing views!
 Cheese Rock



Just the best time ever!  Had a blast making memories with my girls and building a new endurance horse, I am cherishing all the time I have with my sweet girls!  We missed Todd on our trip, but he was  busy taking care of our family, being the bread winner and gone on a long business trip.  Hoping he can join us next time!
