Seasons

It’s starting to cool off here. Not quite cool enough to hike in the sun at midday, but the night temps are dipping below freezing, and the afternoons are peaking in the 80s, so by the time we go for our regular early evening walk, conditions are comfortable. Also, the trails have been improved substantially this summer, giving us access to some of the prettiest high-country groves, such as the one above.

The Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest is located throughout the entire state of Nevada and a small portion of eastern California. You can find out more about it here: https://travelnevada.com.

View approaching Reese River Valley and then Austin from the west on Highway 50,

“The Loneliest Road in America.”

As you can see, the mountains are gorgeous in the winter

(even seen through our slightly dirty windshield).

I love the changing seasons. Nature inspires me to write, to listen, to photograph . . .

and to wander through the wonder.

Ever changing, ever alive.
