I went out to the west coast at the end of January to visit a sick relative, and was delighted to see Mount Baker, which often "isn't there" — I used to have a house with a view of Mount Baker from the patio, but if I took a guest out to look at it, it might not be there.<br />KKay L.

Rainier like I do; haze, clouds, weather hides it much of the time. We laugh & blame the mountain giants who take it away often, only bringing it back when the feel like it. Actually this is spiritual too, for looking at an atom under a 1000X electronic microscope, one only finds the nucleus when you are looking for it, like a green pea in the Super Dome; each atom being mostly empty space, each participant watcher a co-creator; cool.
