As part of Passion Week between Passover and Easter this year, we drove to San Luis, Colorado, to hike a mountain path that commemorates the stations of the cross (Jesus' final journey) and ends at a small but majestic chapel upon a hill.
The skies were as blue as could be, with the snowy San Luis Mountains on the horizon.
The bronze statues along the path are perfectly placed on the desert-like hillside among mature pinon pines. Huberto Maestas, a local sculptor, created all of them to portray deep emotion. Following them up the hill was like immersing oneself in a live drama. You could really feel the burden and weight of the cross that we all bear on our own journey.
