WheresCherie.COM Quote
"Be brave enough to live creatively. The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. You cannot get there by bus, only by hard work, risking and by not quite knowing what you are doing. What you will discover will be wonderful; what you will discover will be yourself. " -- Alan Alda

375--California: Mono Lake, Out of this World
@ CherieSpotting     Dec 12 2006 - 09:35 PST
cherie writes: Mono Lake has a sense of overwhelming eternity. It’s a place where daydreams are real, and the imagination runs wild. No itineraries are allowed here.

On the shores of Mono Lake you are trapped inside a vast enormity of uncovered history. Emancipated from the watery depths of the lake, strange tufas stand like rock from another world. Visitors escape into a realm of vastness where a prehistoric lake meets a modern horizon.

In its raw wildness, Mono Lake is overwhelming. Its vast saline enormity is charged with telling the story of the streams diverted to provide water for Southern California.
