Short post as I've been up since AAAAAAACK O' Clock this morning and had a long day out with the honey.
The first picture was taken this morning when we ran to the store to get pie crusts to make another pecan pie. Yes another one. The honey fell in love and lost all control it would seem. o.0 I had one piece and told him I better get two out of the next one. Maybe I'll make it tomorrow.
ANYWAY, the sky was beautiful and so was Mt. Rose. :D
Clickety Biggety!
I love living in Reno. Especially the part of town I live in. Everyday is a post card made real.
A little later after daring to venture into a bookstore and some other places we went for a little adventure. Took a nice walk in a park and enjoyed some lovely views.
This is a view of Downtown Reno.
After that a bunch of other stuff happened. If you are an idiot with some kids who got their asses busted today for drinking and screwing around with cans of spray paint/graffiti punk ass bitches, then you have me and my honey to blame. You're welcome, now stop being such a piece of shit and raise your kids to not be stupid. We'd all thank you if you did. Assholes. Feh. I'm just glad I have my camera on me at all times. Seriously. It's not art. It's just vandalism. Go express yourself on a canvas if that's your point. Badly spelling out FUCK on someone else's property doesn't make you an artist or a big man. Grr. Stupids.
In happier news I frogged that hat yesterday and started over. Almost done and it's SO CUTE! It's Red and White. Looks like peppermint candy. :D
It does take a village to raise kids. We need to have more responsibility as a society rather than standing around and being afraid to discipline kids, so good for you.

You truly have some amazing landscapes around. Just how big is downtown Reno? It looks like it is the size of Manhattan (land-wise) but plopped in the middle of wide-open country instead of in the water.

Gorgeous pics! It's so beautiful there.
And well said, Julie. And with that, PARENTS need to be the driving force in raising and disciplining their kids. Just my opinion. We teachers get very tired of being the few who do it.

Scout, he's a Blithering Knitiot, and he's right. [A bunch of nasty ranting has been removed due to offensive language.]
The views you photograph are always so nice. I'm looking forward to seeing some of you winter pics. And would you shouw us some of the vandal images, too? That'd be so cool.

If you don't want to raise them, you should not be having kids. I agree that it takes a commuity, but it's up to the parents to get them started on the right path.
Good luck getting those two pieces of pie. *L*
Love your views!

The views are gorgeous!
Good for you for getting those kids what they deserved! Vandalism is never art!
I want pie!!!!

Umm... How (unless you are French Connection) can you misspell FUCK??

Speaking as a retired (sometimes just tired) cop - #1 agreeing with Alison - really how do you misspell FUCK is it FORK!! LOL OMG
#2 ATTN PARENTS!! You are the ones who are supposed to raise the members of the Community so we have a Community. Otherwise the Community in Blue with badges with the assistance of Knitty Otters take you to a new home where your bed isn't as comfy. Sorry the bit 'o rant.
Gorgeous pictures you took.
