-title: Adventures on Black Cap Mountain
----
-
-I was born in a dusty little desert town in Southern Oregon called
-Lakeview. From some of my earliest memories, I recall looking up at the
-range of mountains located beside the town. At six years of age, these
-mountains seemed huge and impressive. The truth is, they hardly
-qualified as mountains at all. They were more like very large hills. One
-in particular had a black volcanic basalt formation at its peak. Thus,
-it was always referred to as Black Cap Mountain. I often wondered what
-the view would look like from the top of that mountain.
-
-Knowing it would be a tough task to obtain permission, I began to ask my
-mother if my friend and I could plan a little hiking expedition. The
-goal, of course, was to conquer the mountain so we could brag to all our
-friends about our brave adventure. I had to ask a half a gazillion times
-to get the answer I wanted, but my persistence finally paid off. My
-mother packed a nice lunch for me. As she handed me the lunch, she told
-me to take my wrist watch so I would be certain to return by 3 o'clock.
-
-At about 11 o'clock in the morning, we set out on our journey,
-determined to return as the conquering heroes we imagined ourselves to
-be. The path that led to the top of the mountain was fraught with dozens
-of delightful distractions for little boys. We turned over many rocks to
-look for bugs. We found some sticks that served as our swords for
-slaying the dragon that lived on the mountain. We sat in the shade of a
-juniper tree to eat our peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Before long,
-we realized that we weren't making much progress toward our goal. The
-black cap at the top of the mountain seemed just as far away as it did
-when we first set out on our quest. This was not a big concern for us
-because there were still plenty of places to explore right where we
-were. We continued our imaginary battles with the dragons and trolls and
-pretty much lost all track of the time.
-
-When it finally occurred to me to check my watch to see how much time we
-had left before 3 o'clock, I was surprised to discover that it was
-almost 4 o'clock. Knowing we might be in a heap of trouble, we hurried
-down the mountain as fast as we could go. 20 minutes later, we were
-nearing the first road that ran along the base of the mountain. Just as
-we reached the road, my mother drove by in her car and stopped for us to
-get in. She told me she had been driving back and forth on the road for
-almost an hour, looking up the slopes of the mountain to see if she
-could spot us. The ride back home was very quiet. I studied my mother's
-face to see if I could determine her mood. I was anxious to know if I
-was likely to spend the remainder of the month in the dungeon for my
-crimes. But, try as I might, I couldn't discern what evil punishments
-she was plotting inside her head. All I knew was that something was
-brewing in her mind because she was not her usual cheerful self.
-
-We dropped off my friend at his house and drove the short distance to
-our home. I tagged along behind my mother as we walked in the door. Now
-I would learn my fate. The air was thick with tension. She turned to me
-and said, "Would you come with me into the bedroom?" Expecting a good
-scolding, or perhaps worse, I went with her into the bedroom. She knelt
-beside the bed and motioned to me to do the same. Instead of unleashing
-a storm of anger upon me, she simply closed her eyes and began to offer
-an emotional prayer of gratitude to our Heavenly Father for the safe
-return of her son. Hearing the relief and gratitude that came pouring
-out of her heart, made an indelible impression on mine. Realizing I had
-been the cause of her anxiety, I resolved to never do anything to cause
-her such pain again.
-
-My resolution was short-lived I suppose. As a young and reckless boy, I
-still gave my mother plenty of reasons to worry. However, the knowledge
-of the depth of her love for me helped me try a little bit harder to
-become a son she could be proud of.

-Cap Mountain, with its black rock formation on the top, is seen behind
