Album Description:
A cool early morning walk along South Drive in Baguio City yielded these treasured images. I enjoy early morning solo walks beneath tall pine trees or among dense greenery. Pine scent is truly soothing. Oh, what I'd give to live in a place like this!

I used to live in the Country Club Village and explored every corner of Camp John Hay, Country Club, Mines View, Gibraltar and South Drive. These are my favorite corners of Baguio City. This album brings nostalgic memories to me. You have captured the beauty of the place so nicely. Thanks for sharing again. You are my window to Baguio and other places in the Philippines now. Warm greetings! - Charlene

Beema Villar in Facebook again left this message: "ok, will email you details.... there are 6 lots, i think there are still 3 or 4 that are 600sqm each and the big one where the main house is...2,400+ sqm with the original 1947 old house...nice layout but rundown.. . but still livable because we enjoy going up on weekends just to relax . . . and have a nice body massage !"

A Facebook friend (Joseph D. Lansang) left this FB message: "Hello Mary Ann ... thanks for sharing a glimpse of Baguio. Hoping South Drive stays as it is. NOT CONGESTED! GB!" This was my response: "Hi Joseph! Great to hear from you! I really, really hope South Drive keeps its greenery, its forests, and its rustic charm. They're the things that keep pulling me back to Baguio. If that were gone, there's not much for me to return to. I immensely enjoy those cool walks in woodsy atmosphere. Oh, I already miss Baguio! Sigh!"

Dear Mary Ann, this is an ideal place to retire! The blooms and the cool breeze will be there during early morning walks. There is plenty of greeneries all around and except for the hilly roads, it is conducive to exercise jogs or walks. Thanks for sharing this part of Baguio that I don't think I have visited yet. Have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
