20. I used to live in the high California desert. We could see the Sierra Nevada in the
distance, beyond the nearer mountain range. I remember the Bristle-cone pines of the Inyo range in the snow. I'm partial to such landscapes. The American West has a full share of them. There are beautiful mountains near the Big Bend of the Rio Grande in Texas: I once saw the Big Bend in full bloom after a rare spring rain. The desert can be a wonderful place. The Guadalupe mountains outside El Paso are delightful. Much of New Mexico, as I remember it, is simply gorgeous

Ptah, that looks like here, although I know it's not. (Wish you were our neighbor, though. :hug: )

Oh, nice!

We've got some too, but I don't know if I'll have time to get any pics...

Thanks for sharing, sweetie!

It sure is cold, isn't it?

19. Yes too cold.
This time of year it's nice to have a visual reminder
of why I don't live in my hometown in Montana.

16. I've forgotten, what's your elevation?
I think I'm at about 2300 ft.


Great picture!

23. I would show a picture from Flagstaff, but I cannot lift the camera yet.
The outrageous amounts of shoveling and ladder climbing have proven too much. I just got in from scraping the drive of the last 5 inches of this storm. We had over 50" in 5 days.

24. I read that the Interstates (I-17 and I-40) just reopened.
Here's a screen grab from the NAU webcam.
