QUEST: July 23
Beauty
I’m entering one of the most beautiful parts of the Quest walk, through the forested mountains. I walked 12.5 miles today to an RV campground where Kathryn parked Quester, with the sweet fragrance of pine in my nostrils all day long.
The Navajos have an expression – a prayer, really, I think – that wishes you the opportunity to “walk with beauty all around.” I was grateful for that opportunity today!

Also noteworthy is that today’s walk got me almost exactly two-thirds of the way to the monastery. Still pickin’ ‘em up and puttin’ ‘em down!
Thanks for following my Quest. If you’d like to respond, please post a comment here, or send an email to michael@michaelhume.net. Either way, I look forward to reading your views when I return to my screen in late August.
