Mono Lake and Lake Topaz

On the trip home, we again took 395 North of course. These are pictures of the beautiful Mono Lake and Lake Topaz. Gorgeous, simply mother nature at her finest!

 I believe this is called Walker River but I am not sure!

 

  

  

  

These are of the beautiful Lake Topaz.

Man this is absolutely beautiful country. If I ever make the trip back down there, which sadly I seriously doubt, this is going to be the way I want to travel again.

This I know. Approaching Mono Lake in Lee Vining, Ca.
This is one of the most beautiful place's I have ever been to. I have driven by here at times when the only way to narrate it is to say that the colors can only be described as a hallucination, or a delusion, perhaps an illusion. It is hard to comprehend that you are really visualizing what you are seeing.

A little closer

Starting to pass it by!

Mono Lake and Lee Vining

On Monday December 1st first my friend came and picked me up at 7A.M. and we took 395 down to Southern Ca. We all stopped at a restaurant at Mono Lake to have breakfast.

This is taken from the truck I was in but GOD was it beautiful!!!

This was next to the restaurant,

Along with this,

And I guess for all intents and purposes the town is not Mono Lake. It is actually Lee Vining. This was behind the restaurant and well I thought , little town, little town Post Office!

And one of my friends being a fellow worker of wood, I could not go without capturing this seat in front of a store. Awesome isn't it!

Ooh how I would like to make something like this.
