Leaving LA

LA is behind us now...the rest of the trip in front of us. We visited the Giant Trees in the Sequoia National Forest. It was beautiful, like being in a cathedral made of trees. This is Shireen beside the most massive tree in the world.

From LA we made our way to Las Vegas (and Gomorrah). I had never been there before. It was like an adult Disney Land mixed with scenes from Blade Runner. The Bellagio fountain was absolutely stunning.

This morning we will head toward Phoenix and a Lutheran Retreat House by way of the Grand Canyon. I am homesick and miss my husband and friends. You are in my prayers and thoughts and even in my dreams.
