View from my deck-part 2 -plus update-

Same time, same place. Yesterday the Mountain and today FOG! But that's ok because it will burn off and today the sun will shine. I guarantee it!!

An hour later the mountain came up over the fog. Remarkable!!! See, the sun is going to shine.

The view from my deck.......

this very morning at 7:15 AM. The view is always breathtaking. I am always so thankful.
