I had a chance to take a "ski day" yesterday at Timberline in Mt. Hood. It was a beautiful day with blue skies and temps in the low 40's. One of the nice things about living in Vancouver Washington is that we have close access to so many beautiful places like this. I snapped this shot at the end of the day just before driving home.Photo Journal - Vancouver Washington Real Estate is a side project for me.

Photo Journal - Vancouver Washington Real EstateMy original plan with the Vancouver Washington Real Estate Photo Journal was occasionally post a photo of something interesting that I ran across during my day. Little did I know that the idea would snowball like it has. It seems that I find several photo worthy items every day!Today, Janice and I took the day off to go skiing at Mt. Hood. One of the things that I love about living in Vancouver Washington is that there is so much to do during every season. Right now it is ski season and we couldn't be luckier than to live less than 2 hours from Timberline at Mt. Hood! Of course, every good ski lodge has a good bar. Timberline is no exception!

PhoTabulous Friday Fotos - Winter WonderlandSki time in the Pacific Northwest is finally here! We bought our season passes last week, tuned the skis, and hit the slopes. It is still early in the season and Mt. Hood - Timberline already has a 68" base. Daytime temps are hanging in  the low teens so the crowds are thin and the snow is staying cold and fresh.Don't forget snow chains or studded tires as they are required for the road from the fire dept. up to the lodge. Have fun! 11/26/2010

  Looking for tracksI snapped this pic yesterday from the Rams Head Bar and Grill in the Timberline Lodge in Mt. Hood Oregon. We had lunch near a window that looked out to the upper slopes of Timberline. The lifts to the top aren't yet opened so these slopes remain pristine and trackless.They almost look lonely. How would you like to be the first one for the season? 11/25/2010
