"T" is for Tree!!!


"T"



"If you would know strength and patience, welcome the company of trees."
Hal Borland


I was entranced by this lone tree growing from the rocky cliff...
on the road to Rock Creek Lake...

  3. This is what I wanted to do first, because some trees have such wonderful magic shapes. Thanks for taking part in this ABC meme.

  5. This is a stunning photograph! Trees rank right up there with my favourite things. You make me think of Joyce Kilmer's poem, "Trees." It begins: "I think that I shall never see ..."

  8. Nice shot!

    We moved back to Newport Beach for a year. It was nice to spend time with family but now were in Texas for awhile. :)

  9. I agree with Bibi. This is beautifully representative of Adams. It's gorgeous and very dramatic.

  11. I'm going through your blog with google maps turned on. I wonder if this was on a road Vic and I took. It was fabulous and skimmed the edges of several lakes
