Into The Mist

Click the pic for a larger view Today’s post comes from the archives.  This image was shot back in August of last year while on a camping trip. We were camping on the Mogollon Rim which is about 90 miles from Phoenix.   It is a great summer time get away as its elevation is around…

The Brickhouse
