Spectacular Dantes View

It was well worth a long drive (a lonely road) to Dantes View. This was our last stop on our first day of journey to Death Valley National Park California. It was already 3:30 pm when we left the main road and it took us about 20 minutes to get there. A 13 mile paved road but the last quarter mile is 15% grade. A steep climb up but so beautiful. Vehicles over 25ft or longer are prohibited on this road. Please watch our short video  Road to Dantes View  to see the road.  There were few cars when we arrived at The Dantes View but those people were out exploring around. It wasn't crowded at all in fact we were the only ones there enjoying the 360 degrees of breathtaking view of Death Valley from 5475 ft high above Sea Level.  We didn't stay long because it was windy and cold.  It would have been nice to explore the area but it was also getting late in a day.

Lump On His Neck

-
I noticed this little lump on the right side of my Alan's neck, it's below his ear. It was very small yesterday and hardly noticeable, but this morning when we got up, it's big! not a pea size but almost a small grape size. I'm really worried now. I don't know what it is.  I guess it's a trip to a doctor.
 

 Update on my son's lump on his neck



Mr Sun came out today and it's pretty nice and warm outside. The big tree in the yard is finally budding out. I'm interested to find out what it is. Will it have flowers or will it be a pain during the Fall?
 Thanks for stopping by

I'm currently living in the land under the midnight sun, the golden heart city of Alaska, and the heart of the last frontier - Fairbanks, Alaska. The winter is long and so is the northern light display. The summer is short but never run short of things to do in the great outdoors.

    Yes, I was able to find a pediatrician who was able to see us today. The doctor said it's a swollen lymph node, nothing to be worried about. It might take a month for it to go away. I'm just glad nothing worst.

    Thank you for stopping by

    Hi Lorena,
    This is my first visit to your blog for the #AtoZChallenge. I just love the photos and videos of your little boy. One day not so far into the future, these photos will become cherish memories because he will grow up too fast. My kids are in their twenties and I just don't know where the years went. I'm glad to know the lump was nothing.

    Did the doctor just say that by looking at it? Did it go away?
