This was taken on September 10, 2015 at Nelder Grove in Oakhurst CA, just south of Yosemite National Park. Fortunately the rampant fires did not reach this lovely place. Each morning I look at this photo for sustenance, for sanity, after which I am ready for the day. I hope it brings you peace as well.
