at about 3PM local time
I climbed up a hill just north of the town
to get the shot
The view is looking South by South East.
 
 
A bit about myself !
I'm past the half way point to 100 years old,
and I still play with my trains.
I like Country Music, Cajon-Mexican-Sea foods.
I was raised on the clean Pacific Ocean air of the beaches,
and the grandeur of the great Redwood Trees, in
Santa Cruz, CA.  I moved to Reno, Nevada in 1980.
I'm single and have never been married.
I have worked as a Fork Lift Operator for 3 years,
Truck Driver for 2 years, Auto-Machanic for
10 years, Cab Driver for most of two years,
and a Stage Tech for the last 19 years.
