Sunday (July 14) my wife and I went and hiked up to a waterfall. We had been there the week before with the kids and wanted to go by ourselves this time. On the way up We ran into a snake, but it was harmless and scurried off. The hike was enjoyable, the falls were beautiful. I took off my shoes and enjoyed the water. As the water flowed around me, I remembered that I had a desire to be rebaptized to the infinite expanse of heaven, and so I did, going under three times.
After we enjoyed the beauty there a while longer I put my shoes back on and we headed back down the trail. Shortly we ran into a group on their way to the falls. A boy and a young girl lead the way. They volunteered that they were from Jackson Missouri and asked us about the falls. We said they were close. I told them about it, that it was nice and cold, refreshing, and there was a place to swim and enjoy themselves. They seemed to anticipate arriving and moved on.
On the way home we stopped at an outdoor shop to view some knives sandals, etc. Then we tried an new coffee shop in the area and then made our way home, listening to an interesting talk by Caroline Myss. We had a great time.
