I just LOVE this one of the flower-hiker. Here's a pan to the south from a week ago for Mav. As it turned out I lost my mom a week ago while up there. Even though she was 87 with dementia, it's put a halt to life-as-usual. It was a harsh, disconnected relationship which has left me with a lot of conflicting feelings and has left me unable to do much but wash windows and dig in my berry patch. My sweet daughter thinks that's the perfect metaphor: an attempt to see more clearly and turning over soil for new life. Dang, I love that kid.

Sierra Maclure, sorry to hear about your mother. My condolences to you and your family.

Heading towards Fish Valley

Post by fishmonger »

South of Reds Meadows well past Rainbow Falls, hiking on granite slabs towards Fish Creek, looking back up the valley, July 1990, before the fire.
