Our travels took us further west to Winnemucca, past this snow capped mountain; thankfully it was atop the mountain and not on the ground before us.; then north
to McDermitt NV on the Nevada/Oregon border. We
stopped at Walmart to pick up a few things and then tried to outrun possible
rain showers. For once the wind was from
the south; I photographed a dust devil off in the distance in a farmer’s field;
this dust devil played across a very large area and looked like an
explosion. Can’t imagine standing nearby
or in its path. Sand dunes were
prevalent north of Winnemucca, reminding us of the snowdrifts back in ON. In fact, snow plows are used to push the sand from the road.
Forgive the pole, but this sunset was very unusual as it outlined a threatening cloud with a golden hue. There was no vantage point to eliminate the pole and wires; a long time since I have seen such a sight! Beautiful!
