This photo was taken about halfway through my walk. As I was walking, I kept looking around and realizing that I live in one of the most beautiful places in Washington. Every time I take walks like this, I am completely amazed by the work God has created. I mean, look around! The horses in this picture function in their own form. They have a small intestine that is 70+ feet long, almost as long as my old house! I am constantly thinking about how amazing this world is! 

 

I could not be more thankful to live out in the country where it is quite and relaxing. This picture is remarkable. Looking at it, I feel free. I love the sun on a cold day, taking a walk past huge pastures full of horses and cows. The green grass and the blue sky are amazing.

 

First of all, I love my town. Second of all, I never knew this sign was here... I drive on this road a few times a month yet I never knew about this sign. My best guess is that I was just driving and forgetting about the beautiful surroundings around me. I find it remarkable how when you take the time to walk and think about everything around you, you see so much more. You actually begin to think of the complex world we live in. 

 

Took my little buddy with me. This is Finnegan, everyone. He is my renter's dog whom I take care of when they go on vacations. I have never had a dog of my own so I am very grateful to be able to take care of them. It is remarkable how fast this dog can drag me down the road... 

 

The very beginning of our little trip! This picture is the very start of my driveway and has been the same for 17 1/2 years. My entire life has been on this road. This is remarkable for me. I have lived in the same exact area my whole life. Leaving for college will be a huge change for me. Every time I come home, this road will be more significant and meaningful. I cannot imagine life away from this property. The night is always a soft pitch black and after so many years, this is where I feel comfortable and safe.

This photo was at the beginning of my day, right before my walk. The fog was extremely thick and it was about 32 degrees outside of the car. Driving my car, all I could think about was how happy I am whenever I have to drive in my jeep. That vehicle is one of my prized possessions. I find it remarkable how God has made our minds to progress and continue learning. We have gone from the days in the time of Jesus to the generations of change and technology.

 

This girl was the very end of my walk. She never fails to bring a smile to my face and I always love to see her. This is my horse Angel. What is truly remarkable is how far she has come in the past year and a half that I have had her. She is the sweetest, most loving horse I have ever been near and she puts up with everything: balloons tied to her halter, running through water, everything you could possibly imagine. I trust this horse with my life and I have never been nervous to get on her or be around her. I mean, look at that precious face! I am always amazed by how respectful she is towards me. What is crazy is how humans have domesticated these animals. I can never wrap my mind around how a wild animal has been contained and used by human beings. Incredible.
