12. I love Mt. Lemmon
I love that area; when I visited Tucson (when I lived in Phoenix) I used to hit that area often.

I miss the desert..

26. Hi, seemunkee...
Commercial jet...

My husband and I had flown into Bend, Oregon, to settle the estate of his late brother...

On the way home (to LA), I realized that we would be flying by Mt. Shasta...I hoped that these conditions would exist:

Me on the correct side of the plane, check
And the plane on the correct side of the mountain, also CHECK!

This photo (and the three others similar to it) were the ONLY good things to come out of his brother's death...

Thanks for asking...I trust you also enjoyed seeing it?

:hi:

That isn't really the name, is it? I'm guessing unsavory waste materials get dumped there.

28. Typical liberal mountain-hugger. Next you'll be saying...
