I too have hiked the Grand Canyon! What a neat fact to learn about you. I've know several people who have seen it, but never anyone who's experienced it. It taught me a lot about myself but it's rough!
We took vacations out west every summer when I was growing up and it was always my favorite place to go. As Ive gotten older and much busier (kids, farming, church, etc.) I enjoy more relaxing vacations. Coastal Maine is my new favorite place to go- eat seafood, sit on the pebbled beach and look at the ocean, hike through the pines and wild blueberry bushes.
But, I've still got adventure left in me and as my boys get older I'm sure we'll head out west again. :)
Hope you're feeling better. I've been praying for you.
You are right when you say that favorite places change. One of my favorite places is Jasper National Park, the pristine lakes, the smell of the pines nearby... But it is over 2000 miles away, so I've had to change my favorite place. A waterfall, only 20 minutes away, that offers some rugged hiking. When the colors turn in the fall, the scenery is breathtaking.
Candi Sue, the Grand Canyon has been my go-to place for many years, but it got so crowded that I couldn't handle the press of people. Yes, it's a hard hike! If you want the wide, open spaces without the crowds, I highly recommend hiking Utah. You can stay in a hotel at night and drive to a new trail every day for a week, maybe stop and take in a float down the Colorado River for a break for your knees. I, in turn, will take some beaches for awhile. Thanks so much for your prayers. I'm in group grief therapy right now.
Mary-Louise, finding a place closer to home makes it so much easier to have a break more often. That's why I've always loved my hiking trails in our nearby Mark Twain National Forest.
Bennett Spring, is my go to place.
Next time we're up that way, we'll have to look up Bennett Spring. Missouri is so beautiful. Thanks, Jel!
I grew up on Guntersville Lake in Alabama, and to me, it's still one of my favorite retreats. We have a couple of different campgrounds that we love, but don't get over there very often.
I'll take anywhere on the ocean, too. I love the water - not a big fan of mountains.
Tracy, I grew up in Ventura, California, between the mountains and the beach. When we moved here to Missouri, I missed those, plus the desert, more than anything else, except for uncles, aunts, cousins, friends, horse. Something about the ocean is a huge draw.
ya havn't been too Bennett ?
I have been going since I was a baby.
have any of ya read the books

The Heart of the Spring Lives On
