meander over there, you will see many more exquisite sights.
hailey and i took a gorgeous drive with my parents to emerald lake.
i'm disappointed that my photos don't quite reveal the deep green hue
of this lovely spot.
just on the other side of emerald lake, our front tire took an ugly
puncture from a sharp piece of slate, no doubt the wicked witch of
the west's maniacal scheme.
so, dorothy and company hiked on to the emerald city for a ride back
with the wizard . . .
. . .the end.

precious stone. . . the fourth was emerald." revelation 21:19

Thank you for sharing the majestic beauty of your area. Wishing you a nice weekend.
I can clearly see how vibrant green it was there! However I notice the same thing when I take pictures...it never is as gorgeous as being there in person! Thanks for taking us along with you.

It looks beautifully emerald to me. So sorry about the tire puncture, but I hope that the hike with company was pleasant as could possibly be.
Wow! Gorgeous!! Bummers about the tire!

Happy "pretty" Friday!

Oh, I so believe you when you express your admiration for this lake....photos really do no justice to seeing such beauty...unless you are a professional photographer! But it is gorgeous and I think that bodies of water must be my favorite element of nature. Lovely tour, and thank you so much for the kind comments. INSPIRATION INDEED! Anita
Wow - amazing!!
Just looked for minutes at your amazingly stunning pictures, sweet Lea!
Wishing you a wonderful sunny happy and funny weekend. xxx
So beautiful, and it looks cool-ish there, too. Thanks for giving us a glimpse.
Beautiful scenery! What a mighty and awesome God we have to bless us with so many incredible places and sights!
Blessings & Aloha!
I hope you pick up a Stilleto award & a Bloggger Buddy award (aka blog hugs)...but If you don't...just know that I do thank you for stopping by & all your past comments :o)
I think the second shot captures the emeraldness quite well actually!
How Pretty! I know what you mean when you can't quite catch the colors or beauty of a place that you are awed by.
It looks like an amazing place!
Thanks for playing Friday Pretties!

Your pictures and your insight are beautiful. They make me want to be Emily.
Blessings.
