This is the view from my home and yes thats snow on the mountains. Its always magical when you see snow in SB. After I finished the painting we got the kids in the car and hit the slopes. If you can believe it we went sledding and had snowball fights.

How far away was it, Chris??

I remember seeing just a bit of snow in the mountains between Ojai and Bakersfield one time last fall when I drove to Santa Barbara from Kern. But not enough to sled.

Hope you had fun!
