Instagram Posts for the Week of Feb. 27

Looking Down on Lone Pine
I find that I post more freely on Instagram. Probably because I don't feel the need to come up with a substantial piece of writing to go with the photo. So I thought I'd try wrangling up my IG posts of the week into one post here on the blog. So without further adieu...
Looking east from the Tuttle Creek Ashram on the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevadas and Mount Whitney. In the valley below is Lone Pine, and the mountains ahead are the Inyo mountains. An easy hike to the Ashram, which has an interesting history of it's own.

Ashram from afar
 The aforementioned Tuttle Creek Ashram. First pictures on the site (with my friendly trail guides) and from across the valley. The location was important to a resident "scientist" as it was close to both Mt. Whitney and Lone Pine Peak which was thought to be a powerful area.

Tuttle Creek Falls for #waterfallwednesday
Not sure of the official name (if there is one) but since this seems to be off of Tuttle Creek , I hereby name these the Tuttle Creek Falls, as viewed from the Tuttle Creek Ashram. This started a long hike to get to the top of these falls.

Location: Tuttle Creek, California, USA

Monday, as just about everyone knows, Apple gave a peek at a couple of its updates in the operating systems arena, both mobile and desktop. Most people knew what to expect in the first half, OS X Lion is coming in July. And although I knew what most of the updated stuff was going to be I still found myself wanting to update right then and there. I mean why wouldn't you? It's $30, and I don't have to run down to a store to get it. Actually, I couldn't if I wanted to, but that's another story. But it's the second half of the presentation that was more, interesting, if you're an iOS person.
