Out for a morning walk in Calaveras County, near the Mokelumne River yesterday. Rolling hills and oaks in shadow with the sun light peeking through.

Almost Frozen Over

010Happy New Year! This is Caples Lake, seen from the shore it is almost frozen over. A few more weeks and this lake will be completely frozen.

Frozen Shoreline

Posted on Updated on

037Here’s the frozen shoreline of Caples Lake. I liked the interesting shapes of ice that formed. I’m not sure if there’s a boulder under one of the round ones or if somehow the currents created the ice disks in the water.

This is my 800th post! Wow and it’s the close of 2014! I’d like to wish you Happy New Year and may the new year bring you joy and happiness. 2015 brings some new travel adventures so I will be posting once a week instead of daily.

Thank you for visiting, “liking” and posting comments! Please keep ’em coming!

Best Wishes

Freezing

018I love getting out after a storm and being able to look at untouched snow (and play in too.) In the distance, another weather system coming.

Natural Flocking

024On our way to Tahoe this past weekend, we stopped at Shot Rock and had our first opportunity to enjoy the 1st snow fall of the season. I loved the natural flocking on these old junipers.
