Just What I Needed

After a very difficult and draining weekend I didn't feel like doing much, even though it was a nice day it still didn't help the way I was feeling. Keith insisted going out even if it was just to the park would help us feel better. So we drove downtown and into the North End to one of my favorite parks- Camel's Back. Growing up we came to this park all the time because there was like one park in Eagle and it was pretty lame, but Sunset and Camel's Back were our go to parks. Camel's Back holds a lot of memories, even though it has changed somewhat I can still picture in my mind what it used to look like and the fun times we had here almost every week in the summer growing up. The three of us played for awhile, Keith and I watched Carson all giddy with excitement run around and explore. After awhile I decided to take a hike to the top of the hill while Keith stayed with Carson. Once I got to the top I hiked the trails in back for a bit, taking in the beauty of Boise, the foothills, the trees, and the sunset. Oh it was just what I needed. What I was feeling all went away and a peace came, it was so nice to just look at the view and think of all my blessings, Keith and Carson being what makes me happy, and just thinking about life and why certain things happen and what God is trying to have me learn through all of it. Sometimes nature is the best therapy.
