Description
English: (1 in a multiple picture set)
The last night we were in our cabin at Mesa Verde NP, I was wakened by violent thunder and flashes of lightning. I went out on the balcony, and I was awed by the power of nature. The park is on top of a mesa and it seemed the clouds were just above my head. The room actually shook when the thunder sounded. The noise reminded me of a freight train. I immediately thought of the ancient Anizasi cliff dwellers who had lived here centuries ago. It is no wonder they ascribed God status to Mother Nature and were scared to offend her. When the sun came up in the morning, I spotted this rainbow. All was peaceful once again. What a beautiful way to say farewell.
