Sipping morning coffee in the mountain air at Half Dome while watching the sunrise in Yosemite is one of the greatest moments I've ever had. I've written previously about my goal not just to see Yosemite, but to experience Yosemite. There is nothing like the experience of mixing fresh, hot coffee, with cold pine air, watching the light bounce off the icy needles in the trees.

When sunny skies meet mirrors and metal, the Chicago architecture pops before it melts into the clouds.

When I arrived in Los Angeles I loved the ability to see rolling hills and beauty rising up into the sky.
