Views From The Mountain

San Bernardino National Forest, Highway #38 – Sunday. May 31, 2009.We set out early from Camp Cedar Falls. My husband forgot to bring his eyedrops and his left eye was swollen again, so we had to go home before camp activities were over. Our friends were going on a thirty-minute hike in the forest to go apple-picking. I so wanted to go with them. Maybe next year. That’s okey. I enjoyed the drive down the mountain anyway.

@ 6000 ft., behind those rocks is a precipice

@ 5000 ft.,  I kept telling my husband to bring his speed down to 20 mph,

going downhill+winding road+steep cliffs petrify me

yellow-flowers-on-the-mountain-sidesplash of bright color on the mountainside

yellow-flowers-on-the-side-of-the-cliff

love this one the most, a long yellow blur on the side of the road,

like a church aisle decked out for a wedding

fog-from-a-distance

“How picturesque!”, I thought when I saw the fog covering

the lower portion of the distant mountains

nearing-the-fog

“Oh no!”, I groaned when I realized we were headed straight for that fog

fog

the sun was gone, scary, being enveloped by a thick fog can feel suffocating

what if we had fallen off a cliff?

    maabtan ta gid ina nga mga bagay. May idea na ko kung diin ta makadto kung ari ka di. there’s this store I’ve always wanted to enter but never did kay nahadlok ko. It’s a shop that sells religiosos articulos.
