Great Hike

Saturday I went for a hike with my friend Subaas about halfway down the canyon to a place called Indian Gardens which is like a little oasis down in the Canyon. The hike down was Ok there are rest stops with water and shade every mile. As we got further down the tempearture began to rise and we noticed that our fingers were swelling probably from a combination of the temperature and altitude changes. The trip back up was a little intense ont the way up there was a mule tour stopped on the trail and we found out that someone had fallen off their mule and the tour guides were trying to get help. When we were finally able to pass and I started to walk up the trail I heard my friend Subaas ask the man if wanted us to pray for him so I immediately turned and we laid hands on him and prayed. It was a very intense but fun day we completed the trip in about 6.5 hours and were very hungry, tired, and dirty by the time we got back to the top and as we ate out lunch we both agreed that a hot shower and a long nap were in both of our futures. 
Tonight I preach my first sermon on the rim at sunset a friend of the pastor here is bringing a group of about 40 kids to the service. I am looking forward to it. Below are some pictures from the hike
