Autumn Aspens in the Arizona Highcountry


"On Wednesday, Margaret enjoyed a visit to see the fall colors of the aspen groves at the 8,000 foot elevation of the forests near Flagstaff, Arizona. It has been a long, sometimes frightening road from the intensive care unit to this point in her recovery from leukemia. There are still challenges for her: host v. graft issues, susceptability to infection, and physical weakness that prevents her from doing many everyday activities. But she is growing stronger and recovering well. This trip literally took her to a higher place, with much spiritual and emotional renewal. She said that she wanted to just RUN up the trail shown here. That shows how much energy she can muster in such wonderful surroundings." -Ken
