Yesterday, I did my 6.1 mile Redwood hike.....took me 5 hours because the forest offered me so many "gifts" that I had to linger in more places than I usually do.
On this hike, I acknowledge "waypoints", places I recognize, enjoy and experience mindfulness...they give me bearing. The first photo is my "IOP" waypoint.....I cannot pass this spot without thinking of all of you...
The second photo may appear washed out and without merit....but the rays of the sun captured in this photo do justice to my experiences there....which are heavenly....

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence - Desiderata
