Standing Stones


I thought we were at the highest point, but forgot to look behind me
we usually go as high as we can


Follow the path, but here some time waiting, 
so we could take in the view
Marc was helping people up these stairs


Standing on a ledge like this wasn't great for some people


Made it to the top of Mount Timnah
It was supposed to be F120 = 48C
but is was breezy and cloudy
that kept the temperature down to 42C
February temperatures in May
Todd wondered if we had people praying for us :)

 We took a group picture

and made a standing stone (pile)
Everyone could contribute 1 rock
Marc had the largest


The men left so we could have a private pee-break
as private as it gets on top of a mountain without vegetation

 I walked to the edge to take this picture
and just to show you; here is the sign that accompanies the view:


It says: "Nehustan river" and "Timnah river"
next time when you read in the bible about a river 
and it's not the Jordan
think about this very dry riverbed
