Scenic Sunday

The Holleys host Scenic Sunday. Thanks a lot for hosting. From the Scenic Sunday blog comes this:

Scenic Sunday is a photo meme of the scenery. It can be landscapes, buildings, flowers, or anything you feel it’s a scenery photo. This meme will be held every Weekend. To join, just post your scenery shots on your blog and link back to Scenic Sunday. Please do visit each other and comment.”

Last year in October I visited my Mom and family in Carson City, Nevada. I took some shots of my sisters house and the park next door that have huge Cottonwoods. The red/green tree was just pretty I thought. I don’t know what kind of tree it is unfortunately. Behind that tree is the Sierra Nevada Mountains. My Grandfathers ashes are scattered almost directly behind the tree. It’s a beautiful site. You can see more pictures of us visiting him there by clicking here and visiting my Flickr account. I was a little late to see the color changing at it’s best but you can see some of it even though it was a little late in the year. And of course the deer that is up by my Grandparents house. They get tons of them in their yard all year long. I hope that you enjoy them.

Please click on the photos to make them bigger. Mahalo.

Have a very happy Scenic Sunday everyone!

  1. Enjoy what’s left of your weekend! I am glad that I “bumped” into you on the web this year! The weather here in Seattle is pretty crappy, so be prepared!!

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

    • I’m also glad that we bumped into each other. :) Good thing I was a Boy Scout in my youth..or was it a Cub Scout LOL. Have a great Sunday :)

  2. Lovely sceneries ! I remember Nevada as rather very dry and rocky and Carson City says something to me. It was the time when we discovered the States every two years from 1988 on til 1997 where I have been there for the last time. I think we almost have seen everything what a tourist has to see, from North to South and East and West. After 12 days travelling we stayed 10 days with my aunt in Madison/Wisc.

  3. I love seeing animals out and about…I wish I saw more of that :)

  4. Happy Birthday, Ali!

    Happy Anniversary, Angie!
