View from Bumpass Hell Trail

Bumpass Hell Trail

One of the views I mentioned last week was this one.

The three peaks in this photo are (from left to right): Brokeoff Mountain, Mt. Diller, and Pilot Pinnacle.

Manzanita Lake @ Lassen Volcanic National Park

@LassenNPS @Manzanita_Lake

For some, unknown reason I have spent more than 40 years of my life within 5 hours of Lassen Volcanic National Park (most of the last 17 years less than 3 hours away) and yet I had never been there (before last week). What was I thinking?

I’ve been to Yosemite many times, but in some ways Lassen is better. For starters, the crowds are far smaller.

Manzanita Lake blew me away. I couldn’t get enough of it. The views from the lake change drastically as you walk around it, and they also are quite different as the day progresses. It didn’t hurt that we had thunderstorms for brief moments each day. Pre- and post-storm clouds over the lake were awesome.

More photos of Lassen and Manzanita Lake coming soon…

Copenhagen lakes

My place this year, near Valby Station, is great. However, I really miss being near Copenhagen’s lakes. I’ve only seen them a few times this year. I saw them nearly every day during the prior three summers I spent in Copenhagen.

Today’s photo comes from a “trip” I took to central Copenhagen last week to eat ramen at Slurp Ramen Joint.

The Blue Lagoon

There is no better way to end an intercontinental journey than with a dip in the Blue Lagoon.

Aerial view

My random, desktop image of the day is from a few summers ago. We were on our way to Hawaii. To anyone under the clouds, it was merely another overcast day. From above, though, it was lovely.
