Mt David













Happy New Year! 1-1-11. The dog & I snowshoed to the top of Mt David, here in Lewiston. Sunny and 52 degrees. The snow was slushy, deep in places. We went up through the woods. Saw lots of footprints, no people. The view from the top was amazing. I could see many LA landmarks: the green onion domes of the Kora Temple, Saints Peter & Paul Basilica, Bates campus, and Home Depot at the foot of Mt Auburn.

I could hear traffic and sirens from the city below. Heard crows and saw them circling above. I enjoyed the fresh air and good energy. Nice spot, a little bit wild in the middle of the city.
