In the Shadow of the Mountains


Delighted to live in the Shadow of the Mountains!

Early evening sky looking southeast from my back door.


Storm clouds to the northeast.

North view from my gardens, clouds lifting.


My Farewell to Winter

Our mountains have a fresh blanket of snow...
Winter's final frolic before his acquiesce.  
The valley is green and alive...
 Awakened by the warm breath of Spring.
 Two contrasting worlds...
one bidding adieu
and the other sweet anticipation.
Both beautiful in their own right.

  2. Did you write that poem? I loved it! We live with mountains on one side and the beach on the other, but there is never snow on our mountains.
