"Mountain Friends..."

"Mountains are like great friends. They are always there when you need them".
Barry T.
Just recently my friend, fellow wanderer and blogger Barry, from "Hiking With Barry - Wilderness Adventure" wrote a very thoughtful post on our shared interest of 'Giving Back' to care for the wild places. He also writes about the many adventurers who do so by 'Adventuring For Another Reason' and thus they create opportunities for connections among nature and for personal growth...
We all then have such a meaningful relationship with nature, as Barry writes, and through our combined efforts and shared contributions, so very much may be accomplished to give back & pass forward with regards to our wild places...
I am so very grateful to have "Partners In Placing" these little Summit Stones, like Barry, Rick , Kraig , Jeff , Kevin , and other wonderful friends who share in the karma, the smiles, hopefully raising a bit of awareness as we wander out there, and who post in support of the amazing and dedicated efforts of the many links on my own site.
My sincere appreciation for your thoughts, and please enjoy Barry's musings and the many inspiring images there like the one above..... DSD
