A slice of heaven

November 27th, 2007

When my Dad retired a few years ago, my parents decided to move to California and build their dream home in the mountains.

I was madly in love with our hometown in Nevada, so my little heart broke the day they moved and I cried myself to sleep on Charming’s shoulder.

While I’ll always miss Nevada, no one can deny the beauty of my parents’ new home.

We had a fantastic visit for Thanksgiving and I sure didn’t complain when I opened their front door and saw this.

Between delicious home-cooked meals from my Mom, we took a walk.

Crisp, fresh air. Not a skyscraper in sight.

Is that Mt. Shasta? If it is, I have relatives that live there, maybe they’re in the same ward? Or is it Redding, or round abouts there?
