After the storm~Our World Tuesday~112211

Our local mountains got snow last night and the desert floor got rain, so I went out early this morning for my walk.  And, this is what I saw!  Beautiful, snow-lined mountains surrounding our valley!  :-)  I wanted to get out and see the snow before most of it melted today.  It's my week off for the Thanksgiving break and I'm anxious to get out and take photos while I'm home this week.  Our World Tuesday for November 22, 2011.  To visit OWT, please go to:  http://ourworldtuesdaymeme.blogspot.com/

After the storm~Scenic Sunday and SOOC Sunday 122610

I took an early morning walk on Friday morning, after our series of storms left the desert and moved on to Texas. I was surprised to actually see steam coming off one of the ponds at the golf course (see bottom photo). There were a lot of ducks there and I tried to be quiet, but I scared all of them off! They circled above, showing me their disapproval! We had sunshine yesterday, although clouds moved in last night and I haven't peeked outside yet this morning. Scenic Sunday and SOOC Sunday for December 26, 2010. No, I'm NOT going to the after-Christmas sales, but I think I'll go for a walk a little later.
