Photos of the Week 2

October 8, 2011

For my days off I drove down to Los Angeles for my friend Roig’s birthday. It’s a five and a half hour drive from Mammoth to L.A., a very beautiful five and a half hour drive.

Boxcars with mountains in the background.

We had some glorious Indian food in Silverlake, Los Angeles.

There just so happened to be a birthday party for my friend Sarah (so many birthdays!). It just so happened to be at the Moonlight Rollerway. It just so happened to be “Organ Night.” (click the video below to view)

It rained almost the entire time I was down there, which was unfortunate, but that very same storm dumped 18 inches of snow down on Mammoth. Almost immediately after I passed the “Welcome to Mammoth Lakes” sign, I was surrounded by snow, in the air and on the ground.

The next morning, I woke up to this sight outside of my bedroom window (click the video below to view)

The view at Twin Lake in front of Tamarack Lodge.

While it isn’t unusual for it to snow here in October, it won’t be here for long. It’s expected to get up to the 60s this weekend, so it’s doubtful that the snow will be on the ground for much longer.

All this, just as the leaves started to change color.
