It is better to have your head in the clouds, and know where you are... than to breathe the clearer atmosphere below them, and think that you are in paradise.

May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.  Edward Abbey Edward_Abbey

That fire tower gives me a creak in my neck. LOL! The clouds rolling in are pretty. Believe it or not we could do with some rain. Happy Spring.

Lovely pictures and quotes -- and it was really really neat how you put the author's thumbnail in there. Nice touch.

I'm glad I'm not a blonde anymore. (Only now they tell jokes about "Q-Tips"!)

A lovely series of photos! I enjoyed the quotes very much and also liked how you added the shots of the people who said them.
