I always love the moments of simplicity and the sense of stripping away anything that's not real when I'm in nature. Several times this past weekend at the mountain house where we were staying, I laid down in the driveway in a patch of sun. Far off in the distance, I could see several mountain peaks. When I looked straight up, I was encircled by trees and the sun was so intense I had to close my eyes to soak it all in. I didn't have Twitter or Facebook to take me away from the moment. It was me, the cold ground, the warm sun and God. I'm thankful for those moments of restoration, clarity and simplicity.
The view I had while soaking in the sun and quiet.
A drive into town.
