"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."

Quoted from the book, The Yosemite, by John Muir, 1902
Written from two homes in South Pasadena & West Adams District
