This will make it the third year in a row I’ve used my December 22 entry to share one of my favorite views on the mountain, looking across the valley to the Cabinet Mountains in the distance.

 

I took this alpenglow shot of the view earlier this month. You may notice a for sale sign with a pending banner on it there on the empty lot. Yes, that is the same lot that sold last year. It went back on the market for more than double the price earlier this year and apparently it sold again. I’d be perfectly happy if the new owners also decide to sell the lot to someone else rather than build. Though we did talk to a neighbor who though that the lot didn’t include that tall tree on the left, so maybe even when someone does build, I’ll still have that tree to look at. That would be nice.
