trip out west - part four

From NM, we headed  for our Uncle Paul and Aunt Tiffany's in Southern, CO.

This is their little country church near San Luis.

It was a dark and stormy night ... After the evening service we headed out so we could drop Susanna off at the airport the next day.  We had been on the road for almost an hour and a half when we plowed right into an elk.

 This is what it did to our van.



 Friday morning the tow truck came and got it.  The tow truck took it to a place where it stayed for a whole week. :(   Meanwhile we headed back for our Uncle Paul and Aunt Tiff's.
 This was our rental car.

 On Sunday we had a blessed Lord's day.






 We saw a river baptism ...

 ... and enjoyed a picnic lunch.

 This is what it looks like there.  (miles and miles of sage brush, mountains and a little bit of cactus.) 

We enjoyed our stay very much, but everyone was happy when the van was done and we could go home. :)
