Pine Cones

Journal excerpt from August 19, 2009:
One thing that brings me joy on the trail are the pine cones on the white pine trees. Right now, there is a sappy substance emanating from inside the cones. Whenever I take a break, I like to look up at the pine cones because they shine and glitter like they have diamonds inside.



Depending on the point of view, they sparkle red, blue, green, white, and look remarkable against the bluest of blue skies and white granite mountains and cliffs.
