We went straight from a hot, hot Summer to 
We had our first snowfall Wednesday night (down to 6,000 feet so it didn’t get us yet at 4,000). I was on my way out to Big Creek and some of the vistas from the windy road were incredible. Mountains looming out of bubbly, wintry-looking clouds…low clouds settled in the valleys and working their way up the sides of the mountains…wind blowing through the trees. It was all very dramatic! I managed one picture before my camera battery went dead, so I put it in our header. I really wanted more of the trees, valleys and mountains in the low clouds, but I’m sure there will be another time soon. It promises to be a long, cold, wet/snowy winter. We need the rain!!
Cool header! I love the Fall. We don’t get nearly as much snow as you guys, which most of the time I don’t mind, but sometimes that’s fun and makes the season feel right, ya know? Hopefully we’ll get a chance to head down your way again soon!
Love the picture of the clouds and trees. However, you have to go a long way to beat the redwoods at McKinley Grove we visited yesterday! Did you take any pictures? I didn’t see you with your camera!! Oh, that’s right…you weren’t feeling up to snuff (he..he..)
