As witnessed on a snowy morning on Ridge Road… I thought I was in heaven.

West Ashland in Winter
Continuing yesterday’s style of showing you the same scene on a different day, today’s photograph is from Ridge Road looking West past Lithia Park below. Here is how it looked in a prior season:
Same tree, different season
I took a picture of this tree back in fall. In my opinion, this tree looks good in any season if the sky cooperates. Here is the autumn pic:
where the deer and the antelope play…
A view from the backyard as a deer attempts to frolic on our neighbor’s play equipment. Grizzly Peak can be seen in the background.
Change in location, change in weather
One of the reasons for showing you so many pictures of Seattle the past week or two is that there hasn’t been much to photograph in Ashland of late. December and January offer the least attractive glimpses of this town, with the exception of when it snows and the mountains are powdered but not concealed with clouds and/or fog. Otherwise it is too foggy/cloudy to see much or the hills look brownish and the skies look more gray than blue. Sunrises can still be pretty though. Here is one from last week. A half hour after taking this photograph our house was surrounded by fog and we couldn’t see a thing.
Final Utah, Nevada, California trip picture
We’ll finally make it back to Ashland in tomorrow’s blog entry. Today’s photograph is the last one I took in California before taking over the driving duties in Mt. Shasta city.
