Mt. Rainier: The Mountain with Sound Effects

The thing I love about Mount Rainier is how it reveals itself. It’s just not visible all the time even / especially when you’re right next to it. It hides. It’s shy or something. And then BAM! there it is. Other times it’s more like ta-DA!! or da-dada-DA!!
Somehow, whenever I see it, my mind plays a sound effect. You see its shoulder, you see its upper shoulder, then its upper-upper shoulder, then the top finally. If you’re in your car, it may not even fit in view. It’s big. The roof of your car may crop off the top; you’ll have to edge closer to the dashboard to see it. I love it.
Am I the only one that this happens to?
