Today has been a fun day. Church was very good, and we both enjoyed the sermon. Our pastor preached on the great commandment and commision. It is always to good to go back to basics and remember what it is all about. After church it rained until mid afternoon, which left us relaxing at the house and taking naps. After nap time I worked on our "loaner" truck, changing the oil and things. And finally we took a Sunday drive to a little pueblo called "Madre Tierra," or "the Mother Land." It is only about 6 miles from our house, but because of the road it took us about 40 minutes each way. That was fine because we wanted to just take a stroll anyway. Each way in to Madre Tierra we hauled people in the back of our truck. We basically became a taxi which was a blessing to those we hauled. It was hitch hiking at the grass root level. It is amazing how different the life is so close to our home. Becca made the observation that the people out in the country are truely living on a day to day basis. They are growing their own food, and living off of the land in some instances. Very humbling to be reminded of our own state of life in comparison the others so close to us.
I saw this beetle crawling across the ramp when I was changing oil at the hangar. I just thought it was a neat color of green.
When we were leaving Madre Tierra we pulled over to look at some flowers. They smelled increadible! As I was smelling the flowers I saw this moth hanging around waiting for nightfall.
