How Beautiful Is My Valley!

The weather and scenery has been changing quite dramatically over here in the last few weeks.

After a really long dry spell, the rain Gods were finally appeased! The skies were completely overcast for an entire week. I got a brief glimpse of open sky on my way home one evening. Just one small window!



But this was nothing like the monsoons in India. There was some hail in the valley, and a lot of snow on the mountains.

We went up to the mountains to get a closer look, but the snow had already started to melt. But it was still beeeeautiful!



The area in the foothills of the mountain was pretty rustic. A lot of ranches and horses there. Here's a nice little barn...


And this is a view of the Silicon Valley!


The valley also produces some GIANT lemons like these!
(Please do not ask me whether I am sure these are lemons. I wouldn't call them that if I didn't know, right?)



And boasts some amazing sunsets! Right in the middle of a bustling city!



Fresh air, clear blue skies, fluffy white clouds, views of emerald green mountains, almost like a painting...right in my parking lot!




Vintage Mercs!


And custom made bikes! This one is a "Big Dog". Had never heard of it until I saw one!



I have a few more pictures that I took today, but those will have to come in another post.
