Mountain Center, CA

Travel Guide

Sometimes, when we allow our grip on reality to loosen, even just a little, our imagination can run wild. It can be accentuated even more when it’s a dark, damp day and the fog rolls in around an already creepy tree.

Drove up to Mt. San Jacinto looking for images of burned oaks from last years fire. Found inspiration in the clouds.

This tree grabbed my attention when I was driving through a recently burned area. It reminded me that even when things are ravaged by fire, new life can still grow. While the exterior was scorched, the tree was still alive. In life the same is true. Even in the darkest of moments we can still find hope.

My personal opinion, too much smoking around other none smoking areas. My room was very squeaky everywhere you walked. The staff was great, the pool area was good.
