Beautiful Sunset

I didn't feel so great today, V + O can suck the energy out of me.

Drove up the canyon to do a mini hike but got lost in the beauty of it all and ended up climbing higher than I have in over a year. Then coming down saw this and all the effort became so worth it!

Thx

It's about 40% of what I could do 2 years ago before CLL symptoms and later on treatments

But I'm slowly building up👍😀🙏

Maybe you could get painting lessons 👍

Ghounds in reply to skipro

Lol paint by numbers is my level I'm afraid. Zero ability to draw ... however I'm ace at the kind of painting involved in DIY!

I wish I had more wall space to hang these gorgeous photos ❤️ Keep them coming- I'll be waiting 😃

thank you so much

I've said for years that these mountains hiking in summer, skiing or snowshoeing in winter have been a life saver on so many levels

oh wow!!!That has brightened up my day. The world is such a beautiful place and I think one of the few good things about CLL is that I have learned to take time and to fully appreciate the natural wonders all around that I used to take for granted. Thanks for sharing. Patrick

Geez , I sure hope you can find the energy to wax up your skis and capture winter for us too ❄️! That's putting the cart before the horse though...Fall scenes are often beyond words and I can't wait to see your hills turn color 😀. Thank you, again, so very much!

skipro in reply to Stamphappy

Awe of course. I can't wait to show you all the fall colors

Then I'll wax up the skis
