And we had the same with views of snowy Mt. Baldy and the mountains of Big Bear with snow. Heck, even our little Saddleback got some snow on top. Very Pretty

Why so many people moved here in the first place. I can snack on garden-grown Clementines between pruning roses. Luxury!

I tell people I like living where I do because I can see snow but not have to shovel it off my sidewalk. I live close enough to the mountains to see individual trees. Every day I always look north to see what mood the mountains are in. Today they still have some snow.
