“It was a beautiful, bright autumn day, with air like cider and a sky so blue you could drown in it.” – Diana Gabaldon

The crisp autumn air whisked by her as she stood and gazed across this valley vista. Soft clouds filled the blue sky, perhaps one of the last reminders of warmer weather and longer days. The change of season decorated the tree’s along the Blue Mountains. For a few stolen moments, she felt like she was on top of the world.
