  1. Beautiful! Such a pensive young man. I'll bet he didn't stop for long. I love the snow effect. How'd you do that?

  2. Oops, never mind. I just found the spot. This may lead to a whole new design....guess that pile of unfolded laundry will have to sit there for a little while longer!

  10. One afternoon, on a day much like that one in your photo, my husband, myself and a friend were fishing off that bridge, our friend decided to go for a dip and jumped off, (the river was very high, it had been raining for weeks) and he swam to the shore where he had a heck of a time scrambling up the banks. I still can't believe he did it and survived to tell the tale........
    Must be the clean foothill air that makes people do those things.

  11. My late friend Gordon Miller is largely responsible for the restoration of the Middle Bar Bridge. He learned to swim at Middle Bar, and wouldn't give up getting that bridge fixed. He would love these photos. He really would. Thanks so much.
