Purple Mountain Majesty

Holden. Heaven smiled upon this place.




Nestled here in the Cascade Mountains is a place so beautiful, not 1000 words nor even my picture can capture it. A place majestic, and yet humble at the same time.


Mountains towering above me. Soil and rock tinged with copper. Stately pines climbing a hundred feet in the air, reaching towards the bright blue sky. Happy, bubbling water rushing to find a home in the lake below.




I'm so glad we've made it!



A fawn has just approached from behind. Trepidation in its gentle footsteps. Nibbling on the tall grasses. She looks up and sees me perched at the waters edge. She looks me in the eye. I try to convey that I am here in peace. She isn't scared off and continues to graze. Such elegance.



I'm so glad we've made it!
