The earth awakens
Sky awash with fiery tones
Reflecting my dreams.

One of my favorite views from a local AT section for #scape day. The James River winding its way through the local peaks and valleys.

It’s #RockinTuesday! No shortage of rocks on the AT. I was forewarned of this section in MD by my shuttle driver. I assured him we have rocks in VA. He laughed. I found out why.

It’s #Scape day! The first time I encountered a trail that had suffered a wildfire I expected devastation. There was, but there was also beauty.

The start of section hike through Shenandoah National Park. I’m not a selfie girl, but occasionally the urge strikes.

When the sun is setting and the light comes above the clouds, it’s almost enough to make me believe. Always reminds me of a ceiling in some Italian cathedral.

Moskowitz: When President Zelenskyy came to the White House, we heard a lot about what he was wearing. Oh my God, the precious Oval Office—he didn’t wear a suit! I mean, here’s a picture of Kid Rock in the Oval Office—he looks like he’s about to jump over 10 buses on the White House lawn.

The sun goes down behind Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, while passing clouds receive the pink and purple light of dusk. Timelapse, August 2019.

One more for the #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #silhouette. Taken from the AT near Hay Rock. Sometimes the things that catch my eye surprise me. Another sunrise shot. The orange glow behind the towers made me think of electricity radiating from within the lines.

For #BlueSkyArtShow today, theme #Silhouette
A beautiful moment as I climbed a hill to reach the summit hoping to catch the sunrise; this was the approach capturing the gorgeous colours seen through the trees. 🌅 📷

Happy Saturday everyone 🕊️

Today’s theme for #BlueSkyArtshow is #silhouette. The Peaks of Otter just before sunrise on an AT section hike in VA last year. One advantage to being old and awake at 5 AM is getting an early start and catching moments like this.

It’s #Scape day! Fallingwater Cascades Trail, off the Blue Ridge Parkway in VA. This view actually isn’t the main attraction, but is my favorite part of the hike.
