The mountains are calling and I must go.
Warmer weather is coming. Adventures are close on its heels. I can’t wait. 🙂
So many of you have been looking for an update on the soon-to-be book. We have officially started formatting (first 4 chapters are done-done!) so hopefully we will be prepping for a release soon. There will be some fun hoopla surrounding the release, but you need to get our newsletter to be part of it. 🙂 Sign up for that here!
Amazing view, great picture!
Thanks so much! 🙂
All too true, Shannon. This winter has been so brutal that I’m itching to take photos in weather where my finger don’t feel like icicles! Very nice shot, by the way. This is the kind of landscape I can really enjoy: lots of texture in the foreground and lots of background layering.
haha Icicle fingers are the pits! Especially when I’m already wearing as many layers as I can. haha

Maybe readers might like to follow this call further with lyrics and music by people also inspired by the call of the mountains.
The Call of the Mountains by the Swiss group, Eluveitie:
Against the waves, with our swords in our hands
Against the sea, with our backs to the walls
Against distress, in the presence of our enemies
Against the storms, roaring at our faces
A cry rang out throughout the skies
A beckon, the flight of the cranes
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
What’s that stir, so blatant in our sallying hearts?
What’s that urge, that lifted up our longing eyes?
What’s that ring, echoing from the leaden skies?
What’s that augur, resounding from the lyre’s strings?
A cry rang on in the sibilant winds
A behest, the outcry of the cranes

Kind regards to all.
Awww, thanks so much for sharing! That’s awesome!
