A view of the family cemetery that we passed. - A Relationship is a Structure
While on our detour walk, we came across these little rock structures. We soon learned that these are a new tradition for couples to do. You build a structure out of rocks to show the strength of a relationship then scratch your names into the rock below your structure. - A Relationship is a Structure
A view of several of the rock structures that we were able to see on the walk. - A Wee Bitty Swamp
While some may see this as a small mud pit, we couldn't help but appreciate the shadows that the leaves left and were able to see the beauty in what would otherwise be viewed as disgust. - Always Look in the Shadows
While many would pass over this little gem, we noticed a small stream that was hidden in the shadows of the leaves, trees, and rocks that surrounded us. - Always Look to the Cross
No matter what, always remember to look to the cross for love, assurance, and peace. - Always Look to the Sky
While we may have been down in the gorge very far, all we had to do was look up to see the beauty of everything surrounding us and it made the depth seem just a little bit smaller. - Blue Skies
Nothing but blue skies and a few clouds when we came our of the gorge. Beautiful weather for the rest of our day. - Blue Skies Smiling at Me
The most beautiful day for exploring my favorite place. - Bridge Over Troubled Water
One of the many bridges we walked over both at the beginning and end of our walk. This photo was taken on the way back out and the sunlight was absolutely perfect. - Don't Look Down
Although we were so far up on top of everything, we were able to look down and see all of the beauty that was down where we had just come from. - Down in the Valley
Looking down into the gorge - Everything Happens For a Reason
When we got halfway through our walk, we found out that we had to turn around and take a different way back because of flood and wind damage. Much to my dismay, we did as we were told but I had to take a moment as I was definitely heartbroken. So I sat, I took a deep breath, and I smiled through the sadness. Then we continued on our way through an area I had never walked before and we realized that everything happens for a reason. - Family Is Everything
One of the larger headstones that was in the family cemetery that we passed.
