A beautiful morning in Andalucía

My vine (parra) is ready for the Winter and the sky is a very deep blue in the clear mountain air, this morning.

Great foto Simon, thanks!

Well I suppose it's a beautiful morning in Toronto too, but I must admit that Andalucia is very appealing at the moment...

Hey Cousin, I'd say that's beautiful, sunshine on the snow. A traditional family event when I was growing up was a walk on New Year's day, and I remember many crisp and clear days, wrapped up against the warm. Of course its main purpose was probably to help the adults with their hangovers

Thanks, I really enjoy seeing other parts of the world from our members, to remind us how dispersed, yet united we are.

Perhaps we might start a new section just for these kind of photos. Thoughts?

Nice, but didn't we do that last year already. Something abot show us your backyard.
I know I envied almost evrybody who uploaded a photo from his wide backyard.

Now see ? That's a proof I don't suffer from Korsakov.

Yeah it was just a few months ago - I posted a pic of me practising on the balcony at our place in Spain, Simon posted a fab pic of the valley, and Matic posted some great photos.

Actually I think I did that after some Foro argument or other, to try to get some sense of perspective/community!

We should have a special 'after the argument' section.

I took this the other day from my terrace as there was this mist round the Alhambra wood which made it look so magical. Kate
