I asked a friend "so what do you want to do while you're here?". She replied, "I've boarded, snow shoes, hiked, swam...I want to see mountains!". That reply kind of left me baffled...why? Well, we are surrounded by them. I walk up Lakeview Blvd. and I see the Sherwins, Lincoln and when I reach the top of the street I see the White Mountains. That's just walking up the street! When you're driving along Lake Mary, I see them and when you park at the Vons parking lot you get the best panoramic view of them!
So I decided to drive around town to show her what I see. Stopping at a stop light, I tell her to look up to her right and she's amazed. I continued to drive and point to all the mountain views. I even took her on short hikes. The one thing I did notice that I had to tell her to look up! When you're constantly checking your social media or texts on the phone, you will miss out on what's in front of you. So while in Mammoth, please...look up and enjoy the scenery!
