Palo Duro Canyon - 11
As we continued our hike to the Lighthouse, I saw some cedars framing the formation nicely making a near iconic photo. We still have over a mile to hike at this point.
The shadow of yesterday is from the death of our niece. I was not certain if the word had been spread - thus the lack of details yesterday. Allison was the daughter of my younger sister, Amy, that died this past September. Allie had a challenging life from the time of birth forward. She was a part of Amy (major understatement) and we can assume that stress may have played a role this week. She is reunited with Amy and my dad - two very difficult deaths for her. It has been a difficult road for the family in general but even more so for my brother-in-law Barry. He is a strong and faithful man that has lost his wife, daughter (not biological but absolutely the father figure for 31 years), and both parents in the recent past. He should be the focus of your thoughts and prayers.
