Touch the earth, love the earth, her plains, her valleys, her hills, and her seas; rest your spirit in her solitary places. For the gifts of life are the earth’s and they are given to all, and they are the songs of birds at daybreak, Orion and the Bear, and the dawn seen over the ocean from the beach.
--Henry Beston, The Outermost House
What a treat to watch the sunrise from Cadillac Mountain after an exhilarating night hike up the North Ridge trail. It was a lovely start to the day, made even better by a scrumptious breakfast and steaming cup of coffee.
I love this place.
