Just me and my adventures in life. Life is an adventure and I try to have fun. I love being out in the world, taking pictures and being able to share them with people who come across my little space on the internet.
Thanks for stopping by and peace be with you.

Playing in the Snow
I went up to Mt Charleston which is just outside of Las Vegas for a little fun:
I am from the San Francisco Bay Area and we never get snow and getting to enjoy it was a treat for me.
I'm from the Wisconsin area and feel the same. But that's a good thing in my book and just watch a blizzard blow through after I've said that. Very pretty with the mountain and blue sky in the background.
Mt. Charleston is a spectacular place. I've only been there once during the month of May. I forgot all about the desert until we came out. Just like, another world.
Your photos are beautiful. It's lovely to see the snow as here where we live in Australia last week we had temperatures over 100F every day. #MLSTL Shared on SM
Hi Patrick and Happy New Year! As I look at your post the weather at my day is cloudy and humid as we are in Summer. Thanks for sharing at #MLSTL and have a great 2019.
It's funny looking at all that snow - it's really hot here in Western Australia atm - so cold just seems completely foreign! Thanks for linking up with us at MLSTL and I've shared on my SM :)
I am from Western Michigan, where we would get a ton of snow. Now I am in Western Germany, not so much here. Still waiting for a nice snow. Loved the pictures.
I can identify with you in terms of growing up at a place which did not get snow and then I saw snow first time at the age of 15 on a trip to a hill station in the Himalayas. I along with my whole family had almost gone crazy in the snow. The first photo is a lovely view. I am visiting here from Wordless Wednesday link-up.
Beautiful place! I can do without playing in the snow. lol But, it's nice when you have an option like this, though. I'd rather go to the snow instead of living with all the time.
We went to the US in 2015 for a "white Christmas" in Pennsylvania. IT was the hottest Christmas day they'd had on record (or something along those lines) so we missed out. SO our friends drove us to a nearby ski field so that we could get some photos in the snow. Had to touch the white stuff! #teamlovinlife
Hi Patrick and Happy New Year! I love your snow photos! Snow is such a novelty to me since I live in the tropics here in Brisbane Australia! It's my dream to one day experience a white Christmas! Hope that comes true one day! #TeamLovinLife
What gorgeous scenery, Patrick! I always find it fascinating when we visit California and Las Vegas, how it can be so hot at sea level, and yet there's snow on the mountains. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous photos with us and for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party. Hope to see you again this week. Have a great week ahead!
So glad you enjoyed your time in the snow and nature! I will be happy to send some from Pittsburgh any time you want it! HA!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous mountains. I don’t have any of them nearby but more snow :)
ReplyDeleteI guess I always picture CA with only sunshine so is nice to see your photos and that you can visit snow. Enjoyed seeing the beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun day.
ReplyDeleteNice!!!
