I worry about Cathy and her neck and head pain. She is in almost constant pain and there doesn't seem to be much that we can do. 

We walked about five miles in Provo Canyon. If we park at the parking area for Bridal Veil Falls it is about a half mile to the falls and then another two miles up to Vivian Park. The net effect is about a five mile walk up and back. We go there a lot because on these warm summer days it is cooler there and lots of shade. Pretty country too.

You can still see some of the devestation caused by the avalanche that occurred here last winter. They are gradually getting it cleaned up. There are plans to dramatically improve the area around the falls because it's such a popular tourist site.

Come Follow Me 

Romans 13:11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

Romans 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore 

if thine enemy hunger, feed him; 

if he thirst, give him drink: 

for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Book of Mormon reading 

Jacob Chapter 7

Sherem denies Christ, contends with Jacob, demands a sign, and is smitten of God—All of the prophets have spoken of Christ and His Atonement—The Nephites lived out their days as wanderers, born in tribulation, and hated by the Lamanites. About 544–421 B.C.
