Hmm? That’s my lake in the upper left hand corner–the one I usually walk around. Today I decided to do a little mountain climbing instead. I’m gonna hurt a bit tomorrow–but WOW, did it feel amazing today! View of the mountain I just climbed, from my lake as I walked home. I THINK the mountain I […]
