Our activity today was to visit the Spring Mountain Ranch State Park. It is really pretty any time of year but particularly so in the winter. Each December we go there and take pictures, hike along the trails, and check out the beautiful Christmas decorations in the historic ranch house. Unfortunately the ranch house is closed due to covid but we did take some pictures and do a short hike. The weather was perfect and warm (a far cry from what our family is experiencing in New England this week!). It's definitely worth a visit if you come to Las Vegas!
Nice outing. I have Wilson's in my background. I wonder... The picture of the dirt road is evocative of my favorite places.
ReplyDeleteYep, I've never seen a trail that I didn't want to go down just to see where it led to!
DeleteI think it was spring mountain ranch (i was little then), but they used to have a huge stage, where they did live plays, and a large screen for movies during the spring/fall. Surprised they aren't doing this, as it would be easy to enforce social distancing as it was all outside, bring your own blankets (no lawn chairs, so everyone could see)...we always brought KFC for dinner, haha.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea! I don't think they do that any more at this park but it would definitely go over well with the public now, especially since many other venues are closed.
