When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love. ~Marcus Aurelius "Methow River Valley via Sun Mountain" This gorgeous perch is set high above the Methow River Valley and offers an amazing view of the landscape below.We used to live in that valley and had a home close to one of the best mountain bike trails in the country. At least 5 days a week I would jump on my bike and ride out into these hills and up and down canyons and creekbeds. It was a visual treat every day when I woke up and looked outside. High up in the Cascade Mountains there was beauty all around us in every season of the year. The winter brought heavy snow and brilliant white crystals everywhere. Spring was these lush green and lavender hillsides and summer brought endless clear rivers to swim in and brilliant sunshine to warm your body and soul. Fall was a spectacular display of leaves and colorful changes. I was lucky enough to live there and and also to have taken literally thousands of photographs when I was there and now we can enjoy them always no matter where you are. Many of these photographs have been printed and made their ways into homes and offices across the country. I love knowing that the beauty of nature and the outdoors is being shared and that this art brings joy and light to so many people. If you are curious about the Methow Valley and want to learn more, reach out to me via email or comment below. I lived in this area for most of my life and have a deep heartfelt connection to these pictures and their stories.

It is always wise to look ahead but difficult to look further than you can see. ~Winston Churchill Check out this spot on the MVSTA trail system where a local glass blower has set up a sort of sculpture. I am fascinated by glass as it is and to have blue glass out in the sunshine is such a visual treat. I stop each time I see this and just admire the sun coming through the glass. Do you see a large glass eye or a the final cut for a vacation’s last day. The director yells CUT and it is time to go home. You can now take this one last little memory and tuck it away for a rainy day. This photo was taken on vacation in Winthrop Wa in the Methow Valley.

Sun (set) Mountain Lodge living up to its name. Something about all that lovely reflected color in Patterson Lake is just too good to pass up. . . #pattersonlake #sunmountainlodge #winthrop #scenicwa #reflection #mountainlight #sunset #lovely #landscape (at Sun Mountain Lodge)

Windswept mountain retreat sunset. . . Huge thank you to @scenicwa and the @sun_mountain_lodge for the weekend get away. We had an awesome dinner (so much food!), spent some time by the hot tub, and managed to even catch the sunset. Such a beautiful location and getting to drive the @northcascadesnps loop was awesome - it even snowed on us at the summit on the way back. The mountain getaway was exactly what we needed after living for almost a full year at sea level. . . #scenicwa #sunmountainlodge #getaway #washintonstate #dryside #winthrop #localtourist #willtravelforsunsets (at Sun Mountain Lodge)
