I was just looking at Monterrey on google earth. Wow is it dense in population! Surrounding area looks very beautiful. And amazingly desolate. I would not want to get lost out there.


Here is my neighborhood. I live on the outside west edge of that circle.

And here you hate me because I posted from Los Cabos... have you any idea what I would give to hike up a snowy mountain on a beautiful afternoon like that?

Nice to see you know how to enjoy life. Cheers!

Suddenly, our friend from Mexico thinks he is Henry Pittock.

 

Mount Hood?

Yeah, we drove up to the lodge but the only few open parking spots in front of the hotel were covered in several feet of snow. We decided to drive back down to the Government Camp rest area instead. Super nice day.

Well, I don't really hate you. I only hate the fact I wasn't there too. I'm planning next years trips with my yearly vacation budget. Vegas for the birthday in July is nailed down but the winter trip to someplace tropical and warm is open. One of my friends from work is headed to Vietnam with his family next winter. I told his wife I would be his chaperon if she could convince my wife to let me travel alone on that trip.

 

What do you think .!

I had to google that one to understand what you were talking about.
I said hike up the mountain, not conquer it! And also, I meant on a beautiful afternoon, not during a blizzard or something worse.

You are not alone. He probably read about Pittock in grade school for a paragraph or two. The more I get to know gopher the more I suspect he has an eidetic memory. He is pretty amazing.

I wonder if Pittock made it back east? There is a small town here, along the shore of the Ohio River called Pittock. Of course that could also be a slur of Pitt's Rocks since William Pitt , since he pretty much founded Pittsburgh.

What about the beauty of the snowy Oregon mountains with the warmth of Monterrey. That would be paradise!

or it's central Oregon in summer. At the lake it's 100+ while people are still skiing on Hood and other Cascade Range volcanoes.

Today someone dropped in for lunch.
Not too clear because of the window.
Max.

 

Pretty on the mountains but not on the road.

 

surprisingly cold winter on the coast. Hope for a surprisingly warm summer
