Mt Hood, the meadows ski area, 7/24/2010
so we visited rooster rock, vista house, and mt hood in one day. a whirlwind of semi caffeinated activity. It was hot, gorgeous vast skies. we ate pizza while looking off mt hood at timberline i think 4600 feet (there abouts.)
a rescue team had just returned from saving a 40 year old man from Mt hood. this picture was taken at the meadows ski area- closed for summer, from there we headed to timberline. we almost didnt and nearly turned around about 5 times.
glad we didnt.

it's a shy phallus i guess?
rather upright and firm in it's shyness if i do say so.
one should prune it's overgrowth, for display purposes.
i am not volunteering.
the other side of the park contains a nude beach.
and the day we visited (it had reached 101 degrees F) a five year old drowned in the river,
sobering when one has a five year old.
Mt St Helens, 7/25/2010
wow what an explosion must have occurred those 30 years ago .
happy explosion anniversary.
they are very particular about preserving the meadows-
although they have planted many hundreds of millions of trees to rebuild the forest - which seems well not natural especially if you consider maybe the earth needed this.
like say volcanoes are the earths acne. like it or not we all get acne of some sort at some point. and although some rumble away without a need for release, there is definitely acne that needs release.
who are we to go back in putting trees higgily piggily after the earth sheds it's upper epidermis?
i don't know maybe it was pissed off of the nearby land being shear cropped by Weyerhaeuser ?
