Dev and I escaped down to Moab after we took our last finals. It was a much needed vacation (after such an intense school year, and a new job for me) and was also a time to celebrate our first year together. It was some of the most beautiful terrain I've ever laid eyes on. It reminded me especially of my friend Laura, who would always talk about Arizona being pretty, but me never believing her (how can something so dead and barren as a desert be pretty?) But the hikes, bike rides, and rafting, even though physically exhausting, were so worthwhile, just to witness the beauty God has given to us. Since going I have such a testimony of this. He has created such a beautiful place for us to inhabit. I can't believe how often throughout regular city life I forget about these special creations.
