Joy in the Morning
A day later and it still makes me tear up…such a gorgeous shot! 🙂
so lovely that I got teary between the caption and the picture! I love seeing “my mountain” (Mt St Helens) whenever you post pictures 🙂
Do I even know where you live, Gheeta?
Probably not since we’ve never met. I live in Salt Lake City, UT. I think I found you through madmanknitting.com a couple years ago.
I love the PNW and got to make it to Portland twice this year–just enough to remember how much I covet friends out there and their proximity to the volcanoes. While I was in Portland back in May I was able to visit “my mountain” the weekend they opened the Johnston Ridge Observatory…unfortunately for me that particular day it was so foggy we could barely see the road as we approached the top.
Ironically, the next day when I flew home the mountain was back out and the day was pristine and blue…she IS rather fickle. 🙂
That being said, I love your pictures of Mt St Helens when they are shared…as well as Rainier and everything else.
I didn’t think you had said so in a previous comment. 🙂 I have always considered St. Helens MY mountain too, since I grew up looking at it. My family canoed on the lake and picked huckleberries there. It broke my heart when she lost her top and Spirit Lake. Also my middle name is Helen 🙂 On a trip a couple years ago, there was not a cloud in the sky, except the one hiding the mountain. A bashful day. Thank you for the story.
