Mountain Retreat

We are very fortunate to live in a place so close to mountains, lakes and beautiful scenery. There is something about being in nature that reminds me to slow down, breathe deep, count my blessings, and realize what a loving Father in Heaven we have to surround us by such beauty. Camping with the Finch Family afforded me the time to relax and reflect that I really needed. The Mr. and I dubbed the campground "Camp Butterflies", with wild flowers everywhere, butterflies gathered in large numbers. There's something so delicate about a butterfly. I love watching them. They're attracted to natural and internal beauty, color, and sweetness. Things I should seek as well as trying to be a delicate woman in the world.
I have a strong affinity for Quaking Aspens. The stark contrast of the bark and the way the little leaves dance in the wind. I could sit looking at sunbeams coming through trees and listen to the wind breeze through the leaves all day. Any cluster quickly can become my own personal sacred grove.
We had a lovely time and I'm already in need for a mountain retreat.
We camped in Beaver Creek Campground near Beaver Mountain Ski Resort above Bear Lake. A new favorite spot.
