I like living at the top of the mountain! This is the view looking down the canyon as we start the drive down to the high desert below us to do doctors, shopping, etc.
And this is the view from the desert at the bottom, as we begin the drive back up to our 'island in the sky.' Click on picture to see arrow for Big Bear location -- it's about 45 miles as the crow flies from here up to the top, farther when driving because the road goes around the end mountain and then up the canyon.
And this is how it looks when we get HOME.
It's about a 90 minute drive each way, not bad when the weather is nice, but I'm always so happy to get back up here. We've had occasion to go down three times in the past two weeks for appointments, and I'm grateful for a safe ride each time.

I like cider donuts! These were a yummy autumn treat last weekend!

I like new books! I ordered these from the Martingale Press warehouse sale -- they were good bargains, and I have several new project inspirations marked. I don't ever follow book directions exactly, just use them as a jumping off point for my own interpretations :)

I like spooky wine labels! Found these at the market the other day, and they add a Halloweenish feel to the wine shelf in the dining room.
