1,000 miles from home

I'm sitting in the campground office not ten minutes from the badlands. In fact, there's an incredible view of them right outside our camping spot. We hiked for four hours through it today and it was SOOO hot - My arms and face are totally burnt! Ha ha! Anyway - we're in South Dakota, obviously, and it took us three long days of driving to get here. It's rather lovely to be able to relax for an afternoon and not have to spend it in the car. I've got like seven books shoved in the car for the road - so excited to catch up on my reading! :)
Tomorrow we will be seeing Mt. Rushmore and traveling to our next campground. About a ninety minute drive, as opposed to six hours. What a relief.
Yesterday I walked up to a picnic table right in front of the view of The Badlands in our campsite and just prayed and tried to "be" before I took out my pen and paper and wrote a new song. :) Amazing words are written when you are truly focused on God!!!
There are a thousand little detail I could write, but... yeah, they're not that interesting. ;) he!he!

I'm sure I will be writing again soon!!!!

Psalm 34:1

I will bless the Lord at all times,
His praise shall continuously be in my mouth.
