This giant cross is on private property that abuts a popular, local hiking trail. 

From its vantage point, there are terrific views of the valley below, 

Mt. Diablo in the distance, and the brilliant blue skies above...

Mt. Diablo is the gem of Contra Costa County. 

It's a state park and from its observation deck at 3,849 feet 

you can enjoy the far-reaching skies and surrounding landscape... 

(and for those of you who prefer driving to hiking, there's a road going all the way up to the summit)

I couldn't resist taking another photo of Mt. Diablo

with all those pretty clouds floating by.

One day I'm afraid those trees are going to block my view!

I know, I know...I keep posting shots of Mt. Diablo,

but it is THE landmark around here and what

with all the storms that have been attacking us lately,

I thought it is only fitting to share this scenic scene

of our mountain with a dusting of snow on it...
