The Silver Lining

Once, shortly after moving from Colorado to Florida, i found myself enjoying a day fishing on the Gulf of Mex. flats with my friend Henry who grew up in central Florida. i lamented about not having any mountains in the view. Henry just smiled, pointed to the building Nimbo Cumulus clouds and said "there's my mountains". Indeed when they rise from the horizon, they often remind me of the Grand Tetons whose shadow i lived in for a few years.

    I noticed you said you lived in the Tetons. That's a gorgeous place! I visited there 2 summers ago and I'm dying to go back :]
