One of my California loves: Sierra Nevada!

I'm in the sierra nevada, trying to fill myself with the crisp, harmonious spirit of this amazing, high altitude life.

I sit 6000 or so feet up in the atmosphere, at the creek every morning, outside the library in a small park surrounded by hills covered with pines and maples above a short valley cut by a small running river as alders stretch to the sky & allow the sound of birds singing and waters rushing over rocks enter my aching heart.
