Update for 10-12-06

We had a beautiful day yesterday at Canyonlands National Park. We took two short hikes to see the vast ranges of mesa and buttes and then stood at the Grand View and the four of us prayed together for the beauty and for healing of Joe’s cancer. It was magnificent. It is really easy to pray when you are looking at God’s creation. We came back to Moab and toured the shops a little, took a nap and went to dinner. Joe has been spending time fixing the pictures on his computer so they are the best. We have never seen country like this. We ate a picnic lunch at one of the overlooks and some beautiful Pinon Jays, which are a gorgeous blue, joined us.

We have so much to be thankful for:

• That Joe feels well enough to enjoy this trip that he has wanted to do for so long.
• That we have wonderful friends to be able to share this with,
• That we feel the grace of all the prayers each day.

We so value all the people who read this blog and care and believe that God can work with this cancer and bring good out of it.
Love to all of you and God Bless Mary Anne
