Spring is lasting a bit longer than usual here in Sarasota -- yes! We're still enjoying beautiful days with fairly low humidity which translates into cooler evenings and remarkable sunsets. The entire SDP staff just returned home to Sarasota and we were able to catch up enough with housekeeping matters etc. yesterday to make it out to Myakka River State Park for this nice sunset. A surprising number and variety of birds were out -- which the entire SPD team is looking forward to sharing at some point. So, where were we….?
Nevada! This was my view earlier in the week. I was in Reno for a few days and was fortunate enough to have a few hours to explore nearby Lake Tahoe. All I can say is … wow! What a gorgeous part of the country -- very pretty with the tall pine trees and snow capped mountains (I even spotted quite a few people sledding, cross country skiing and downhill skiing). I definitely would like to return to explore some more one day. Which leads to the question: swamp or mountains? Actually, I love both! Each has its own unique environment and natural beauty. As long as I can be outdoors exploring, I'd be happy as a clam. Hope everyone is doing well in the blogosphere!

They're both achingly beautiful shots.
Both places are so beautiful. Always nice to catch some different views, though!
You've provoked some real nostalgia here. Reno is the gateway to one of my favorite areas. We'd head south on Hwy. 395 along the east side of the Sierras. Some gorgeous high desert and beautiful valleys that head into the eastern Sierras to pristine lakes. In the spring we'd head further south to Death Valley.
Oh wow!!!
Both lovely, but I am in the sunset at the ocean camp.
