Sabbath Oct 24--Gila Cliff Dwellings

Sabbath we decided we would take an excursion out to the Gila Cliff Dwellings. It is a two and half hour drive one way. The view of the mountains in the Gila National Forest of NM was breathtaking on the way to the national monument. There are series of seven caves in the side of this mountain. We were able to go in to three. They were once home to the Mogollon Indians back in the 1200's. Faith packed a picnic of fajitas. We shared from the Bible and enjoyed the beauty of God's handiwork. Was nice to be able to relax. For tomorrow will be one of our hardest days of riding, climbing up to our highest point of the trip.
