Hey everyone! I made it safe and sound to the Rocky Mountain Lodge. We are two hours behind Atlanta time and it's been a long day.

The view from the lodge is spectacular. We are situated in a little town called Wilson which is between Jackson Hole and the Tetons. The mountains are snow covered, it was 55 degrees in the middle of the day, and we have this entire field of grass for us to relax and look up to the scenic mountains. It truly looks like a painted background when I look out the window.

I'm resting at an elevation that is about a mile + another 1000 some-odd feet above sea level. We'll see how well I've adjusted to the altitude when we go on an easy hike tomorrow in the snowy mountains!

I have already made many new friends and it's just amazing how outgoing and genuine everyone is about strengthening their walk in the Lord. I've met Lily, a dancer from Ontario, and she reminds me SO much of Madeleine (needless today we're becoming fast friends). I'm so excited and I can't wait to see what God has in store for me this trip.

I love you guys and I'll keep you posted!
