The Magnificiant Sierra's

While on vacation last week we were able to spend the time we so needed to be quiet, talk, read, hike, paint, dream, and gaze at the sky. The beauty of this earth is so amazing and we took the opportunity to take it all in. The lack of technology added to the quality of our time together and moving through the long warm days. This is what we saw when we came around a bend in the road just above June Lake. The clouds were billowing and soft. It almost looks like it would rain (according to Oregonians) but it was just being beautiful!
This is also June Lake but further over in our view. It was a sight of heavenly proportions! After a wonderful lunch at the Schat's Bakery in Bishop we headed on toward the entrance of Death Valley. The Sierra Mountains were towering and snow covered all the way. Another stunning view of some incredible territory!


Just a quick word about Schat's Bakery....O my!! If you ever go through Bishop by all means stop and have a bite at this huge bakery. The bread is out of this world and there are so many different varieties it's unbelievable! While I was standing in line to place my sandwich order I met a young man from France. He told me that he had only seen bakeries like Schat's in France. So....go skiing at Mammoth Lakes and stop for lunch!! Mammoth Lakes sits just above the town of Bishop, California.
