This is part 14 in a series of blog posts that I am dedication to my favorite photos of 2009. Today’s inductee and now a resident in my “Creeks Streams and Rivers” photo album is “Perfect Place is Being There“. I took this photo Jul 28, 2009 at 4:27 PM with my Canon EOS 10D.

Another photo taken after the 24 Solo worlds on my sightseeing day (http://goo.gl/oJa4). This place was truly magical. This is actually a rest stop just down the mountain from the Ptarmigan Cirque. Numerous hiking trails went from this place and when I return I want to hike them.

I remember this was where I realized that my day was over and that I must turn around and head back to the lodge. I really really wanted to stay but I was feeling weak and getting sicker by the moment.

There was this family playing Frisbee in the parking lot. I remember them well because they were so happy. Here in the states you see families on vacation and they are always bickering and arguing.
