Ah yes, this is the answer to why live in Redlands, CA, USA!! You may have heard about the torrential rains. They have cleared for now. The top picture has our pool furniture and a few of our palms in the foreground with our neighbor's grapefruit orchard behind and the snowcapped mountains beyond that. The next has our obligatory Italian style fountain. I wanted to show the amazing contrast of the lush plant behind the fountain with the snowy mountains behind. I don't think you can see the mountains as well as I'd like. It's either me or the camera....likely me.
