Fire on the Mountain

I am intoxicated with the fall leaves. Today I spent a good two hours framing close to 300 shots of the brilliant, eye popping color. I did some pretty crazy bushwhacking to get some of these pictures but it was worth it. Don't you think?

 

 

 

Want to hear my tender mercy of the day? Earlier this morning I bought a NICE memory card, on sale for $24.99, (usually $89.99). I was so excited to use it. After snapping a few pictures on my old card my camera displayed the message: "CARD FULL." I reached into my pocket to retrieve the new one but sadly it was -EMPTY- My heart sank. I was standing in a gorgeous canyon during the "golden hour" before sunset and that card was nowhere to be found. I had just hiked up and down a long steep hillside loaded with grass and bushes so I was feeling pretty doubtful I'd be able to find it. I decided to say a little prayer anyway and asked Heavenly Father if he would be willing to help me. Well, guess what happened? Just as I got back to my car I looked down and there was a little blue card sticking up out of the dirt. Sweet huh? I was so glad not to have to hike back up and down the mountain searching for it.
