First time hiking the Stanford Dish with Natalie

Natalie and I had talked about it for a while and we finally did it.

Most of it is captured in this video. 


and these pictures.


Before


During

Let me just say it was realllyy hot. We went mid-day so it was super hot. 

To the left- the West/ Pacific Ocean Middle- San Francisco Right- Mid Peninsula 
Is this an incredible view or what?!


The Path




It was beautiful,clear day. From where we are standing, we could see the GOLDEN GATE. 
See Stanford Tower behind and east bay mountains. 
This made it all worth it and seriously wish I did this everyday. 

Saw this on a shirt in Palo Alto Downtown afterwards. Our response- been there, done that.

Reading the Bible quote

"Do not expect always to get an emotional charge or a feeling of quiet peace when you read the Bible. By the grace of God you may expect that to be a frequent experience, but often you will get no emotional response at all. Let the Word break over your heart and mind again and again as the years go by, and imperceptibly there will come great changes in your attitude and outlook and conduct. You will probably be the last to recognize these... Go on reading it until you can read no longer, and then you will not need the Bible any more, because when your eyes close for the last time in death, and never again read the Word of God in Scripture you will open them to the Word of God in the flesh, that same Jesus of the Bible whom you have known for so long, standing before you to take you for ever to His eternal home." - Geoffrey Thomas, Reading the Bible 

wow.
