Hikers Taking In The View (08/29/11) — Image by kenne
I love Nature partly because she is not man, but a retreat from him.
None of his institutions control or pervade her. There a different kind of right prevails.
In her midst I can be glad with an entire gladness. If this world were all man,
I could not stretch myself, I should lose all hope. He is constraint, she is freedom to me.
He makes me wish for another world. She makes me content with this.
— Henry David Thoreau

It certainly is a gorgeous view!
Pit, It is beautiful. It’s like standing at nature’s alter. Always appreciate your comments.
