Mountains, Lake and Trail



But in every walk with Nature one receives far more than he seeks. 
~ John Muir

This image was captured along the Lake Loop Trail at Hungry Mother State Park in Marion, Virginia and may be my favorite image from the week we spent there. With this you have a bit of everything: The mountains through the trees, part of the hiking trail, and a lovely view of Hungry Mother Lake between the trees as well.

Lake View Splendor


“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As longs as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.” 
 ― Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl

after Love has stolen forth 
into the world and done its beautiful work, 
go back into the shade again 
and say nothing about it."
