The couple in the above photo is gazing at Mt. Whitney, California, and the adjacent peaks. I climbed that mountain when I was 18 years old, spent ten days backpacking through the southern Sierra before I reached the summit. In those days everything seemed to take forever. Now here I am forty years later wondering where the time went. In the immortal words of that great philosopher, Ferris Bueller, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
