Into the storm

We hadn't had much winter when a blast hit us Friday.  Half a dozen inches fell in town and 15" were welcomed on the mountain.  It was minus nine when I got the The Times this morning.  In this shot Highway 64 eastbound vanishes into a threatening sky.

Brrrr! We need the moisture, but that sure looks like an invitation to Argentina to me. Shooting through the windshield? Don't try this at home.

This says it all, doesn't it? Fitful, cold. More like early spring than winter. But the below zero temperatures tell us differently.

Very nice image.

In fairness this was taken last year and it probably was spring. But it fit the theme of winter finally being upon us so I used it. I don't think it was through the windshield but was between TP and Taos.

As to Argentina, that's on my mind and I have been checking out digs in BA and Mendoza. Great party, amigo. Barkeep, more champagne!
