Skywatch Friday

This is somewhat of a cheat post...it's not actually a photo of the WWV. All you CDP purists out there are cringing now, I know...but bear with me. I thought this was one of the most beautiful scenes I've ever seen, and it's not too far from the WWV - just a couple of hours. Husband and I were on a trip headed East, and as the sun flung its last golden cords of warmth toward Baker, Oregon. Baker isn't normally a place I enjoy, but this view is enough to change my mind. And for good. This photo proves that even if you get tired of fields and small hills, a relatively short drive out of the WWV will open up worlds of beauty to you.

Are those the Wallowa mountains? Beautiful shot.

The Elkhorns, actually. The Wallowas are on the other side of the freeway, to the east. You're good, though!

Thanks. My boyfriend is from up there but I'm no good at recognising all the different mountains... yet! ;-)

Love the shot. God is such an awesome creator!
