So last weekend, we finally began exploring our new mountainous home. It's breathtaking. When we first got here, everything was covered in snow. However, once it goes green, WOW~
The sheer size is hard to imagine. This beautiful wall of tree and rock was taken on the furthest zoom I can manage, as we were driving along at 65 mph, cause The Man drives to get places people, not to look.
However, in the middle of nowhere we pull off the highway when we saw a sigh pointing toward the mountain with a weird word on it. Yep, the weird word was a city name. Apparently a city of 4 people! Seriously, however we drove it and passed by this old mining equipment out on the side of the road....neat! By this point, my kids woke up and started paying attention to the whole sight-see thing.
Next we drove right past this! Until I made him back up. In the middle of nowhere was this beautiful house...empty. Wonder if they mind us squatting for a couple of years....
By the time we reached town limits, we were 20 minutes from the highway and the mountain was closing in on both sides, there was barely room for anything other than the two lane road. We round a corner and see this......
