Susan's Perspective

It's HUGE, it's white, and  it sneaks up on you as you go around a bend in the road.  And it is still over 100 miles away.  Denali.  The High One.  Mount Mckinley.  Another one of those breathless moments.  The mountain welcomed us today.  Not everybody is that lucky.  It is only visible 20% of the year.  As we got nearer, the clouds around the base dissapated, and it was sharp and clear.  It followed us for about  75 miles, showing us its different sides.  Then, just as quickly, it was engulfed in its own weather system.  That's okay, I think we will see our friend again.  We live in the same state now!
