Lone Cypress Tree

Lone Cypress Tree

I've lived in California, my entire life. Coastal road trips are some of my favorite parts of living here. They're amazing, and I love hanging out with my family. During Labor Day Weekend, we decided to drive the 17-Mile Drive. One of the points is the Lone Cypress Tree. I love it every time I come, because it's such a great viewing point. We almost always see cranes and sea otters in the waters below. I love the Lone Cypress Tree, because it's a sign of independence for me. It's stood by itself for so long and looks beautiful against the waters.

    The Old Bench

    She runs down the path to the lake by her old school. 

    Every day she comes there, for one reason. 

    To see something. 

    A bench...it stands by the lake. 

    Serene and frail.

    When I was five, I used to look up to my sister. 

    I still do.
