Another picture of mountains

This picture is taken from our street, just higher up the hill. For orientation purposes, look at the streetlight in the left forfront of the picture. Directly below that lamps' globe, down about an inch is another street light. The rooftop it is in front of is our house. I was just trying to capture how tall the hills are around us and what I meant by the snowline getting closer and closer to us. Be sure to look very carefully at the left side of the picture beside the bare branches on the left edge, and notice the all white mountain. You can barely make out its sillouette. It must be very tall to be that covered in snow. Also note the clouds on the left side of the picture even with the first lamp post. It is very common here to have clouds so low that the mountains are completely covered from sight. Another really cool thing we have witnessed is what are family calls the brigadoon effect. The clouds hang so low to the ground covering up the whole bottom of the mountain but then suddenly stop near the top of a mountain. You look up and see what appears to be an island floating up in the sky. A really cool one happened a couple days before this picture. We were driving home and ran into the house to get the camera. By the time we got back outside, the clouds had moved further up and completely veiled the mountains. Wish we had gotten a picture of it for you because it is really bizarre looking. This picture only shows you the mountains on the right side but there are equal mountains on the left. A river runs in a gulley between them...hence the name of our town.
