Tahoe Basin

Time is like a river. You cannot touch the same water twice because the flow that has passed will never pass again. ...Author Unknown

Enjoy every moment possible.

We drove up to the Tahoe and Truckee area in California to see some of the snow and run off. It was nice to see after a five year drought that has taken its toll on the trees, lakes, rivers and wildlife.

Gorgeous evocative photograph, I love the bright blue sky with the vapour trail too.

@angiedanielle24 Thank you Angie! You were speedy...I hadn't even finished it yet...LOL! Much appreciated though! :)

[FBailey]

This looks fabulous! Nothing at all like this over here

[Phil Sandford]

Wow😮😮 We really have nothing like this in the UK
Your words remind me of the Garth Brooks' song, The River.
🎼 "You know a dream is like a river, ever changing as it flows, and the dreamer's just the vessel, who must follow where it goes"🎼

Wonderful photograph. Favtastic

@fbailey Where is over here? It was a lovely afternoon and 160 photographs later...hard to choose what to post but I will scatter a couple more favorites this month. Thanks!

[FBailey]

@gardenfolk Am in the UK. It's cold and grey right now ...

[CC Folk]

@phil_sandford Many thanks Phil! Garth Brooks is fab and so is Lake Tahoe!!! But the U.K. and Europe would be wonderful to see and photograph! I have not been to Europe since 1976...way too long!

@fbailey Ohhh. Well, we have had our fair share of rain this year but its usually blue skies, low humidity and sunny days, which I do love. It was very warm a few days ago but it will be about 75 degrees tomorrow. But, I am dreaming of a trip to England...one of these days! I love the history, the architecture, the cobblestones, the tea...and on and on.
