Shopping Day






















Yesterday we went to Alamogordo to shop. I couldn't resist taking more pictures. It's difficult to capture via camera what the naked eye perceives. Being in the mountains, with tall pines and aspens, is so beautiful that I can't resist trying to take that perfect picture.
The first picture is just my favorite...tall trees. Next is a glimpse of the aforementioned White Sands, NM, taken at a pulloff down the hill toward Alamogordo. Cloudcroft and the surrounding areas are part of the Lincoln National Forest.
The final two pictures were taken in Cloudcroft. This is the ski area, and Cloudcroft is one of the southernmost ski resorts in North America.
There's some rain around today, but none headed for us, it would appear. Right now it's about 77 degrees outside. Isn't that rough. It was 55 degrees this morning when we got up.
Nothing else new here. Hope all is well with each of you.
