The Golden Sun vacation home

 

Cairn at The Golden Sun

This cairn was added as a focal point to my alpine garden in the summer of 2001, and not as a landmark for some hidden cache.  I always wondered  at how stable such a monument was, and if it really could withstand the test of time and nature.  Time will tell.
