The photograph above is the very top of the north ridge above Gold Valley. I call this scene, "The Top Of The World." You can see for many miles. It is about 6 miles from our camp and a 2 hour trail. This is also another way into Gold Valley when the snow pack melts. Sometimes not until August. I might explain further that all the backgrounds were found and created with Carol in mind, knowing what she loves and enjoys. That is why some of the backgrounds are unusual.

This next Poem I found in one of my books of Poetry

Walk Slowly If you should go before me, Dear, walk slowly Down the ways of death, well-worn and wide, For I would want to overtake you quickly And seek the journey's ending by your side. I would be so forlorn not to descry you Down some shining highroad when I came, Walk slowly, Dear, and often look behind you And pause to hear if someone calls your name.                                                   ~ Adelaide Love

Another Beautiful Poem I found in my books.

Rainbow - Room Almost any Rainbow   Finds a place to start, In a rain - stained Heaven,   Or a tear - stained Heart.                   ~ Lillian Everts

More short Poems and Quotes I found in my books.

Lord, grant that I may   seek to comfort rather   Than be comforted; To Love rather than be Loved.                       ~ Mother Teresa We can do no great things, Only small things with Great Love.                               ~ Mother Teresa Who ran to help me when I fell,   And would some pretty story tell,   Or kiss the place to make it well? My Mother.                                   ~ Jane Taylor Give your troubles to God; He will be up all night anyway.    Those who bring sunshine            To lives of others Cannot keep it from themselves.
