Sawmill Trailhead and storm~Friday's Fences~011113
I drove up to Pinyon Flats this morning to drop off a book and a newspaper article for one of my son's friends. These two have known each other since they were in kindergarten and still remain friends today. Anyway, I wanted to get these up to Aaron before the storm hit (THE SNOW STORM...). It was misting when I drove up the mountain about 9:00 this morning, but the WIND was unbelievable! I nearly lost my car door when I opened it! Man, it was blowing! The clouds were moving across the mountains very quickly. Then it got so foggy I couldn't see the road, so I dropped off the book and newspaper (wrapped in plastic), took a few photos, and drove home. Brrrrrrrrr!!! Friday's Fences (and fog) for January 11, 2013. To visit Friday's Fences, please go to: http://lifeaccordingtojanandjer.blogspot.com/ Yes, I made it home safely. In fact, I drove the other direction and took photos of the windmills near Palm Springs! :-)

You can almost tell in the photos how the sky was changing so quickly.
What an ominous storm! Great-looking fences and trees on the hillside. Boy, I bet it got covered in snow after you left!
OOOO, that would be terrifying to me to drive down a mountain in fog! Do be careful!
wow, sounds like you got there in the nick of time!
It's so interesting the watch a storm come in! I wouldn't like the wind! Nice pics
Terrific captures of the nasty weather!
