Pictures

This post is kind of late, considering the state Christmas tree was lit over a week ago. But, I have no excuses. I’m not too happy with the pictures because they came from my iPhone, but there was no way I was going to drag around the big camera while I also had both kids with me, so oh well. And actually, for a camera phone, in the dark, they’re not that terrible. Jens Peermann got some much better photos, so you can check those out too.

Anyone else have pictures to share?

So it sounds like this weekend is going to be our first big snowstorm of the season. And here I’m going to miss it because I’m out of town for a few days. I’ll be back Tuesday to deal with all the messy aftermath, without any of the fun of the actual storm. Sigh.
Oh well. I’m expecting all of you to have pictures and stories waiting for me when I get back!

CARSON CITY – The question of how well the Gibbons administration has done in quickly and efficiently deploying Nevada’s share of stimulus dollars is difficult to quantify.

Just because you can’t get enough, more pictures of the deer that roam around on the west side. You can see more photos like this at aroundcarson.com.

Friendly ghosts will lead tours along Carson City’s historic Kit Carson Trail offering tales of the city’s haunted Victorian homes and buildings along two different routes. The “Friends in Low Places” guided cemetery tour is a new addition to the annual festivities, Oct. 22 - 23.

Yesterday, September 11, was the opening day for the new Fuji Park fishing pond. I was driving by and I saw a large crowd gathered on the banks of the pond, so I figured I could stop by and get some pictures. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. The Carson Fly Fishing Club was there handing out doughnuts.
