Mountain Eye Candy

Sculpted and preserved
Eroded into beauty;

    What a lovely way to look at a mountain-- yes, they have that certain scrumptious quality about them-- one can seem to look at them for a long time and not be tired-- thank you for your comments-- yes, sunshine and people can be healing indeed...
