Stewart Falls this morning.  Snowshoes.  With a wonderful Kristen Metzger. 8:00 am.

Half way up the trail, the moment became religious in thought and lesson.  The sun was blotted. You could look at it.  Moon-like. A perfect white circle.  If the fruit from the tree was lit like the paintings show, I imagine it looked like the source above us.  There was silence. It came from the rocks and snow.  Aspens had buds proving Mother Nature's hope in a day when she might thaw.  To talk at this time was almost sacrilegious as it obstructed the other noise.  In the silence there was a ring that one could hear.  Almost like  "Stewart" was singing to himself.
