SOME SCENES ON MY DRIVE YESTERDAY AROUND OUR AREA

 It was one of those beautiful days, high clouds  that form before the weather change which brings in the winds and fog and luckily some good rain during the night.  

I seem to only head toward the different lakes up here when I go out but once in awhile I remember there is more to our little town and neighborhoods than up the mountain.  Yesterday we went to a few areas I like to drive through once in awhile, an area called Valley of Enchantment and Cedar Pines Park.  VOE sometimes suffers a bad reputation from the locals up here - such as more crime.  (like everywhere else these days the crime seems to be rising).  Cedar Pines Park is beautiful but the drawback there is their high water costs compared to we who live closer to town and the lake.  The beauty up there is really nice.  I'll eventually post a few photos of it next time.  

In certain areas it feels more like you're in the country.  I love when you see a tree in the middle of a road.  That tree must feel very loved.
