Haven't seen a whole lot of blue sky recently. This was a beautiful break in the clouds looking out from the front door.

Walking in the woods with the dog and saw this. Somehow the snow had fallen off the wood but remained connected and was actually sagging Hard to see in the pic but this cradle of snow was hanging about a foot off the ground...

Sure, why not

wood4heat,

Those are some very nice pictures. What kind of equipment did you use to take them?

I've never used the live view. I'm comfortable using the window and as I understand it using live view heats up the sensor and can add noise and artifacts.

More Ice

Rain and temps steady at 30F coated everything in ice. Pines especially were weighted down, but luckily only a few branches snapped.

Wow, you guys live at wonderfull places. I am amazed how the propertys look. Man, that dune racing, is that a track or in the wild, and if so you can just do that. It would be impossible overhere, only rules, to many people on a to small piece of land.

My pics were taken at Sand Lake Oregon. It's an off road vehicle park about an hour and a half west of Portland Or that you can ride or drive virtually anything you want. I don't know the exact size but it's got to be in the thousands of acres. A couple hours further south we've got Florence, Winchester Bay, Spinreel, and Coos Bay each of which is a larger area with bigger dunes but for a day trip Sand Lake is hard to beat.
