Vacation Photos

Photo Hunt

The theme for this week is CLOUDS and here's my entry:







These photos were taken last March at the Sierra Mountain, on our way to Reno, Nevada. We visited our cousin in Los Angeles for a week, then head to Reno, NV to visit Mom for a week as well. These all taken inside the car :-) What an amazing view, isn't it? Love the snow up there. We've seen some people skiing with family and friends. The view up there leave me breathless!

Don't forget to visit other Photo Hunt participants for more photos!

  40. It's been a while since I've seen snow. (Used to live in the US but have been in hot parts of Asia since 2003.) So have to admit that I fixated on the snow rather than clouds in your pictures! ;S
