Mountain welcome brings tranquility As I touch the keys of my comput- er, I am overwhelmed with the appre- ciation of being able to take respite in the mountains. The quiet atmosphere of the environment at high altitude is calming and soothing to a busy mind. Even one day is helpful to the restora- tion of the body and soul. Since we have had some drastic winter storms that have damaged parts of our cabin, we will have some hard work to restore the cabin to its comfortable atmosphere. I know there are those who are not drawn to the mountains at all and may think of the ocean and the beach as having the peaceful attributes that make them feel rested. The point is that each human being must have some activity or area where he or she feels tranquility. While in the mountains my aller- gies subside and I am able to breathe so comfortably as compared to being in the valley. Oddly enough I am not allergic to the green pine pollen that comes with mountain living. Oaks in the valley are not so kind to me and they continue to be a challenge to my allergic demeanor. With the calming of being in the mountains also comes the work of clean-up. Winter storms wreak havoc with limbs and branches, pine needles fall like snow and stay hidden under the white mounds until the weather brings several consecutive days of sunshine. It is then that cabin owners pull out their gloves, shovels, boots, and rakes and tackle the monumental spring/summer clean-up. Mounds of vegetation begin to dot the space between trees and then must either be burned or hauled to the dump. Some families gather together for this activ- ity and culminate with a barbeque which makes the chore a little more entertaining. We have taken the snow protection boards off the windows, a chore my husband considers his duty. I actually wanted a break from my indoor chores and wanted to prove to him that I could do the task without the need of an electric screw driver. Well, as you may have guessed the removal of the ply- wood covers took me a lit- tle longer than husband’s efforts. My reward, the beautiful mountain sun- shine streaming through somewhat dirty windows producing imperfect sun rays. Isn’t it predictable that one chore leads to another chore, washing windows, which I will put off until another mountain visit. order to live in today’s fast forward demands. These visits to moun- tain climes remind me just how dependent I have become con- cerning the technology of present times. My computer has acted up right in the middle of deadlines of various sorts all needing the process- ing of a computer. After spending a few hours consulting with a very capable Tech person I was encour- aged to not give up. It was then that the backing up of data, regular scan- ning and protection programs became a reality to me. Carolyn Barber In the meantime our time in the mountain climes may release us from the constant reminder that human beings who are supposed to be lead- ing us carefully, instead of sending gross pictures to young women on Twitter. True, there a large number of people who are laughing their heads off at the actions of Anthony Weiner. Others are expressing their disgust of his visual offerings to any- one. He declares he will not resign. Hmmm, we shall see if he doesn’t get to stay. Most I remember when all I had to do was buy a new tape for my Reming- ton typewriter and brush it out to clean it up. Then there was the elec- tric typewriter that did spell check and corrections and had to be plugged in to work. Following, came the Star Writer word processor with a little printer built in, (cartridges very inex- pensive) and many tools, spell check, pictures and a very small screen. Actually the word processor still works and backs me up when I am in need of a quick hard copy. I will have to admit that I have become quite enamored with computers since they are so compact and can take us all over the world due to the internet con- nections. Since our mountain respite is presently disconnected from elec- tricity and telephone service we will have to get it all hooked up again in citizens do not approve of A. W’s stu- pid actions; a large number of U.S. citizens can’t keep from laughing their heads off and at the same time sympa- thizing greatly with his wife. Perhaps we should take careful thought before we put questionable pictures on the internet anywhere. Enough of this inserted diatribe. Back to the adventure of heading for the mountains where the T.V. is at rest until the P.G.E. repair is made, where there are a variety of books to read by lantern light, where an old fashioned type writer still resides and may just have an ink tape that will allow a lit- tle preparation for next week’s col- umn. The chirping of birds in the trees call me away from this computer and out into the sweet air of the high alti- tudes where the gentle rays of the sun are starting towards the west, soon the night birds will call and mountain stillness will set in, it will be time for me to head for the valley. I am deter- mined to take the mountain calmness with me. Carolyn Barber has been writing her column in the Daily News since 1992. It appears on Saturdays.
