Off the Grid

Road Trip ~ To Bend and Beyond

I’m sitting on the porch of a small log cabin, rocking in an old-fashioned rocker, writing the initial draft of this blog with antiquated pen and paper. Our cabin has no internet, no cell phone reception, no television, no radio. It is perfectly quiet out. The harvest moon shines brightly overhead. I am somewhere on the road between Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons, completely off the grid and it feels good.

My husband and I have spent the past couple of days soaking in the incredible beauty of Montana and Wyoming, and to tell the truth, my brain, my senses, my emotions need a break. Quite frankly, I have no more words right now. The resounding quiet of our little log cabin is music to my ears and rest for my soul as I process what I have seen and heard.

All that I have within me is a song of praise and wonder for the Creator of the universe. I find it difficult to believe, as some would have it, that random chance created such beauty, symmetry and order out of chaos. God created this most beautiful world and to Him, I am grateful.
