November 5th, 2010

The end of last weekend, officially, Monday, November 1st, while away for a terrific trip to Seattle I saw a Glacier. It was magnificent and a hugely wonderful chunk of ice which was aw inspiring. Having been on countless camping trips throughout this fine country from East to West Coast and the Northern States down to the deep South, this past one was for the record books.

Fall colors in sight with golden and fiery red trees was a beautiful sight.

The constant roar of a rushing river steadily flowing at the base of a mountain fresh with the cold onset of mountain winter and their gorgeous snow capped peaks was invigorating! Lush with the moss, liken and leafy trees amongst the pines and ferns on the forest floor was an absolute pleasure to see. With continuous downpours while in deepest sleep in the warmth of the RV, the pitter patter was a dream. Campfires were had in the earliest of morning with low clouds and evening while roasting marshmallows over the driest of logs for a splendid orange glow. Words cannot yet describe.

Having made sure to visit a few favorite stores in the city, such as Far 4 and my absolute favorite, Watson & Kennedy, window shopping has never been better. Not even in LA! To a place, once called home, the return visit was a delight!

Dog in tow with the feline friend he's had for years or shall I saw the feline friend has been around for years with the newer dog friend- the gang was all there.
Great food, great sights and perfect for fall, that trip was a perfect start to being 34!

Today is my father's birthday. Happy Birthday Dad! :)
