Not just a great Valley…
but a shrine to human foresight, strength of granite, power of glaciers, the persistence of life, and the tranquility of the High Sierra.
Yosemite National Park, one of the first wilderness parks in the United States, is best known for its waterfalls, but within its nearly 1,200 square miles, you can find deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, a vast wilderness area, and much more.

Thank you for the bm and link-don’t know how I missed this posting, but it has been a horror of a week at the hospital. This is one of your best views of Yosemite and I want to thank you for sharing this wonder of nature and this image of peace. ;-}
Laurie Puglia replied
thank you for being so thoughtful and encouraging in your response. sorry hospital life has been bad. are you a nurse?
I appreciate your words.

Senior respiratory therapist in a community hospital here in Ohio. With the economy as it is, it pays many more bills than my art, but it makes the art even more necessary for my spirit. Thanks for asking. Peace, doug
