Life is grand in the Pacific Northwest.

Colonial Creek Campground Scenes
This week we camped for a few days at Colonial Creek Campground in the North Cascades. This is where mountains rise up to over 9000 feet. A place of fast running rivers and icy cold alpine lakes. Where the breeze is cool and fir-scented. Some call it the American Alps. I call it tranquility. And yes, the water really is that green.
I rose early one morning and strolled down to the lake where I saw...
Birds flying above the clouds...
Paddlers making ready...
Anglers...
Mirror-like reflections in the water...
Preparing to launch...
Alpine wildflowers...
Morning mist on the lake...
Paddles slicing through glassy water...
A place to reflect...
A reminder of our Native friends...
And I returned to this...coffee a-perkin' and sausage a-sizzlin'...

Oh what a happy all over feeling from looking at your photos. I miss camping and I love nature. My friend lives in Oregon and is surrounded by this beauty. You are blessed.
