The locals call this place “Where Heaven and Earth Meet”. Mount Shasta, mother of volcanoes, timeless and regally monumental, she stands. Indeed this mountain seems like the bridge to eternity.
Cephas and I left our winter home in Idaho to travel. Our journeys brought us to Mount Shasta yesterday. A warm welcome awaited us with two very good friends with whom we always visit when we pass this way. Sometimes we stay with Mary and Fred for a few days, sometimes a month or two. The times are always exciting, busy, and memorable.
Fred and Mary are Massage Therapists with their own studio on the same property on which they live at the base of Mount Shasta. The Art of Massage is the culmination of over twenty years of Fred’s life. Mary joined with Fred about two years ago when she came to Mount Shasta to pursue massage and her dream. Together, they live and work their dream in Mount Shasta most of the time. Their studio is for private bookings by appointment. The setting is breathtaking, with Mount Shasta to one direction, Black Butte the opposing direction.
