Thanks to everyone for praying. Aaron's mom came back to Amber's last night around midnight. She is not doing good. She is definitely in a serious depression phase right now. She told Amber she spent her time away praying that God would let her die because she can't handle everything anymore. She has a psych appointment tomorrow morning in Montrose and Aaron's grandma is picking her up this afternoon to take her down there. Just pray for both of them because it is going to be very stressful until the appointment and even then I'm not sure what the psych can do for her.

This is a 100 year old cabin they had at the visitor center. I like the mud chinking ( I think that's what it's called). A couple named Comma and Mabel lived in the cabin when the CCC was building t...
