A few shots from our latest excursion to Dolly Sods in West Virginia's Monongahela National Forest. The weather was overcast and downright foggy, but even without the clear vistas, the wind-ravaged landscapes were still a sight to behold. I traveled light with only a 35mm lens, a focal length I want to continue to rely on more than I have in the past.

La gourmandine!
It's been a hard wait, but the big day has finally arrived: La Gourmandine opened their Hazelwood location this morning at 9am! It was wonderful to see so many people there for the ceremony, including our own Councilman Corey O'Connor. There were nice words spoken before the ribbon cutting, and I'm sure that all in attendance shared the same hope that this marks a new day for our lovely neighborhood.
Once the doors opened, the bakery itself was everything I'd hoped it would be. It's more spacious than the Lawrenceville location, and the food and presentation were, unsurprisingly, top notch. I'll have to wait until Kristin gets home to sample everything I snapped up this morning, but I did just enjoy my favorite--the (sorry, Le) Parisien.
