Funky Clouds




As we were driving home from church, Keith noticed these odd clouds formations. The clouds were in four separate layers, dark on top and bottom so each layer could be clearly distinguished. I shot the top photo through a very dirty wondshield as we came to the freeway bridge two miles from our town's exit. (Those of you who have been here probably remember that bridge: the highest bridge over land in the state.)

The second photo was shot from the edge of the meadow nearest the post office. That's our house on the edge of the meadow, then the trees, surrounding mountains, and two cloud layers above. The clouds were unusually funky today -- another interesting facet at living "4000 Feet Above Care" (our town's motto).

Yes, we've lived up here in the mountains for five and a half years. After iving in the middle of a major metropolis (San Diego), it;s lovely to have fresh air, pines, and plenty of room.

The only problem is that someone has purchased this meadow outside out home and is planning on putting in 20 houses right outside our back gate!
