Then we came to a point where we had to "ford" the creek. Brave Jeff went across first, carrying Emma. He would drop her off on the other side, and come back partway to meet me with Clay. Then, he would carry Clay across. And I would come last. We did that 6 different times!
We had one last time to cross the creek. I said to Jeff, "Maybe you should just run ahead and take a picture of the waterfall." I'm so glad he didn't go with my idea... At last, the sight of the waterfall (which was SO WORTH the trip).
We sat at the bottom of the falls eating our picnic lunch as we heard the thundering water and felt it's spritz on our faces. Amazing. I thought about how God just takes my breath away with His magesty.
"And these are but the outer fringe of His works; how faint the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?" (Job 25:14)
