This time of year in the Northwest
the mountains are still covered in snow.
We are having unusually beautiful
weather and this is what I see on
my drive toward home

Mount St. Helen's When I was a child we would go to Mt. St. Helen's and camp. We would fish on the gorgeous Spirit Lake. When we moved away I missed my beautiful mountain. After returning to the northwest as an adult, I lived in Portland, OR. when Mt. St. Helen's blew her top. I saw my lovely mountain explode and later I saw the devastation. But I still love her. She is an old friend, and as an old friend I see her beauty and the joy she brings to me. For those of you far away, here she is, all dressed up in white. |
