Monday, September 13, 2004 Most Beautiful Mountain in the World My daughter drove past Mt. Shasta this weekend and took a few pictures. They aren't great, but for those who have never seen Mt. Shasta, they will give some idea of it. I lived in the town of Mt. Shasta off and on for about 12 years. I miss it all the time and wish I could live there now. It is a mountain which appears welcoming. It stands all by itself with a base 50 miles in circumference. It rises about 11,000 feet above the town and plain around it. There is simply nothing like living in a place where you can walk out of your house almost any day or night and see such a beautiful sight. Samuel Johnson once defined Wonder in his dictionary as: "the effect of novelty upon ignorance." Yet, I never tired of the novelty of looking at Mt. Shasta. It always surprised. It's like never tiring of seeing or meeting God every day. I must take a trip up to The Mountain (that's what we call it up there) again soon. 
These two were taken coming south on I-5 from Yreka. The next two were taken from where I-5 is alongside the town of Mt. Shasta City.
