The Breath of Angels...





"The air up there in the clouds is very pure and fine, bracing and delicious.
And why shouldn't it be? -it is the same the angels breathe.
Mark Twain
Roughing It


Is it just a coincidence that Mark Twain's book Roughing It was written
about his travels to the west, including the Eastern Sierras???

    Spectacular capture!

    I haven't read Roughing It in a number of years. I'll have to remedy that.

    Thanks all!!! I took these on a drive from LA to Mammoth on the 395... It was a particularly spectacular drive... This was probably taken about 2/3 of the way to Mammoth!!!
