Day Two – Diamonds and Daydreams
We found our next camp along the shore of Diamond Lake with
the towering Mt. Thielson keeping watch over us. A cloudy first day gave us some
rainbows and puffy pink clouds. It seemed to us that the mountain looked an
awful lot like the mountain that The Grinch lives in, so we kept watch for him.
This was a great campground and our site was right on the
lake. During the day, we had frequent visitors in the form of gray jays,
squirrels, ducks, and geese. Later that night, the sparks from our campfire
flew away into the black night and brought back with them a brilliant sunrise.
As the sun rose behind
Mt. Thielson, first there was a glimmer, then there was a silvery rim, and
finally the sun rose, a white diamond above the black mountain.
The suns rays spread more diamonds across the lake surface.
What a beautiful way to start our day.
