Yesterday, I wrote of the forest at Tumalo Falls near Bend Oregon. Today I decided to hike through it. After being under the canopy for most of the day, I broke out into the open and found a picture suitable for Scenic Sunday. The Cascade's snow-spotted volcanoes are a muted background for layers of majestic pines. Sometimes it is best to look at a vista, breathe the air, take in the shapes, feel the breeze and listen to the quiet. It put my mind at ease and concurrently elated and calmed my heart. Such a view of life, which began without words.Saturday, July 25, 2009

That must have been one heck of a hike :D
But I see that it was well worth it :)
Beautiful scenery!
Beautiful shot!
Definitely a breathtaking view of life!
Beautiful vista. My life in the woods. MB
There's nothing like looking from the mountain tops to feel at peace. That's beautiful. A nice reward when you're tired, too.
Hope you had a GPS with you! Wow! Stunning! How can you ever tear yourself away and go back to civilization?
