Afterwards we took lunch at the mission with the church members and then our group split up. Part went to hike canyon De Chelly and a small group went to meet Dr. Ruby, a Hope veterinarian on the Navajo Rez who was participating in a traditional ride. She has a wagon (pulled by two gorgeous horses named 'Fred' and 'Wagon Wrecker') and several people in her group on horseback who all rode into Window Rock for the camp meeting. A handful of us stayed back at the mission to clean and keep and eye on dinner and spend some time resting. It was storming pretty bad at the mission so I was a little worried about going hiking in the canyon so I stayed back and spent the afternoon on the porch felting Queso. I thought it would be appropriate to wait and work on him in Az, which is where I met his owner the first time I went on this mission trip. Arizona is beautiful country and gave a great backdrop to my time working. And here he is, finally finished:
I took a little walk over to the church and took some pictures with the bell and mission house in the background as well.
