California II November 8, 2011

It’s clear I will likely not write about my trip to California. But today our photographer friend, with whom we stayed four days in the northern part of the state, posted some shots he recently took from a powered parachute. They are so beautiful I am outright stealing a few and posting them here. This is where Tim and I hung and out and fished with our fantastic host and guide. Is it any wonder I sometimes feel something akin to homesickness?

Route 153 
Is that Mt. Shasta in the background? I lived in Redding in the late 80s. I’m always homesick for that part of the world in the fall – especially since I live in Portland, Oregon now, where it starts raining in September.
Yes! This is Fall River…
Beautiful. And love the volcano. And yes, there are some spots I visit that I ache for after I leave them, so it is no wonder you feel homesick for it.
Who’s that artist who takes photos like these and makes them look like paintings? Or maybe it’s vice versa? I’m vaguely reminded of something you posted once on your blog… (oh, this damn failing memory). Anyways, they’re quite spectacular…
Beautiful!
