  • WOW! Beautiful photographs by Craig Mathews of our lovely mountain range. Soberanes Burn Scar must be a new designation. Poetic.
    They were predicting snow at 3500 in Yosemite, pretty low, I'd have been in it.
    Heavy rains on and off this morning in CV. Including hail ! Not a terribly impressive size but fun.

  • So Beautiful -- having been raised at the foot of Mount Shasta I really miss snow at Christmas. Thanks for sharing these with us Kate. And Merry Merry!!!

    • It looks like they were taken from the backside. Chew's Ridge got quite a bit of snow, so probably over on that side of the burn.

  • Hey! That looks just like up in the Rocky Mountain wilderness in Idaho, where Jana and I are right now!
    Dreamin' of a White Christmas
    Blessings and and The Light be with you all.

  • And now I am homesick! One of my favorite sights--but a bit hard to find in Southeastern Louisiana. I do remember one of the years we were living in New Orleans when it snowed just before Christmas, and the cathedral was a rather magical sight. Still--miss those ridges and sending blessings to all for a 2017 filled with healing for them and all living near.
