Particular hill to ascend for the destination.

Particular hill to ascend for the destination.

Me sitting and reading the Psalms. City view of Kathmandu is looms below.

Pine sprawling around the glade.

Journaling and reading the Psalms and Luke in the glade.

Afternoon canopy of the pines.

Buddhist prayer flag, a common sight in hills of the Kathmandu valley and in the Himalayas. (the harm to natural beauty, trees, and the environment caused by nylon ropes and bright flags is a topic that is often overlooked and almost never discussed in Nepal.)

We were happy to meet each other. I gave them water to drink from my bottle. They are fed by the nearby villagers.

Encounter with lovely dogs during the descent from the hill.

Lovely dogs accompanying me on the return hike down the trail.

The pine cone souvenir from the glade brought home, a reminder of the day and God's beautiful handiwork.

The spiral pattern on a pine cone follows the Fibonacci Sequence, showing a beautiful mathematical order in nature that is grounded in God’s mind, inspires awe and praise for God’s wonderful creation.
