You cannot do silhouettes in fantasy. Ah, no, you must be faithful. It is, the art, a, what you call, paradox. It is always that you must be simple, and then, if you are simple, you will stimulate the imagination of the observer. ~Ugo Mochi
For Sunday Trees
Our default weather is back in action. It’s cold and rain from last night temperaure is around 11degree. Sigh!
As I said in my previous post, last Thursday we had our annual ski/tour day in my office. It’s like a team building activity. I opted to join the tour/hiking group. Here are some images which I dedicated to Jo’s Monday walk theme, its been a while since I participate in it.
Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature — the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.

Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity ~ Our National Parks)
Some places were difficult to walk but fortunately I managed it without spikes. Going uphill was easier than going down. As the other road was facing south west there was not much snow and going downhill was OK but hard on knees for the incline was steep.
And lastly
When you do something noble and beautiful and nobody noticed, do not be sad. For the sun every morning is a beautiful spectacle and yet most of the audience still sleeps ~

5th of March was our annual tour/ski day in office. The possibilities were to join downhill or cross country ski or a hiking tour. I chose the third option. I will write and share my experience in another post. For now it’s the tree on the top.

Becca’s Sunday Trees
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up ~
On weekend I was got busy hiking here and there hence a late post 🙂
The following quotes seem to be connected.
I like the mountains because they make me feel small,… ‘They help me sort out what’s important in life.~
Human life is far more important than just getting to the top of a mountain. ~Edmund Hillary
A couple of shots from my hike/walk yesterday. It was beautiful summer weather.

For Becca’s Nurturing Thursday!
When weather forecast predicts a couple of hours of sunshine before a rainy week then the only smart choice is to go out and be in nature. I am presenting some of such precious moments.
