Big Views, Cacti and A Closed Play Area

John9 Comments

Here’s another children’s play structure that has been locked down. I hate this damn virus, it’s stolen so much from all of us. Just don’t go playing around in the Barrel Cacti, children… The view of the foothills was taken from the upper deck walkway, looking west. The two-fifteen freeway is in front of those tightly-packed homes. That’s how we do it here, my home is very close to my neighbors on either side. Squish!

Here are a few more photos that were taken yesterday, I hope your day will be as sunny as it is here in Las Vegas today! I have no plans for the day except the pot of fresh chili I whipped up at seven AM today, yummy!

Beer is delicious!
They eyes are watching you…
I don’t know what kind of plant this is…

At Downtown Summerlin Today

Good afternoon! I got out of the house once again today as cabin fever is closing in around my throat you could say. It’s just too damn beautiful outside to be stuck indoors. I snapped around sixty-five photos there today, here is the first set. I hope you like these, it’s my first time using the Nikon Z6 in this location.

An Angel Over The Desert

John11 Comments

Last eve I was having a cold one in the backyard and noticed this very large white angel, flying so high over the Mojave Desert. Do you believe in angels? I sure do! The other photo was taken two days ago near Bonnie Springs Ranch, or what’s left of it. I think another ride into the desert is in order, and soon!
