Nevada and Leaves

Aspens
​

---

Most people don't think of aspens when they think of Nevada.  But there are some beautiful ones in Nevada near Lake Tahoe. I like the shape...almost a heart. And the color is pretty cool this time of year.

Last Year
​

Here I am in an aspen tree a year ago. My fur was a little fluffier then. 

Look Carefully
​

This is me climbing a tree today.  It wasn't easy.  That tree was quaking.  I think they got that term from earth quakes.  It felt like I was in an earth quake when the wind hit those branches and the leaves were clattering up a storm. I only fell off once.

​A Leaf in the Sand

Near the lake, there were no aspens anywhere, but I found a leaf in the sand.  I buried myself down deep with the leaf so neither of us would blow away.

No Trees Here
​

Too bad there wasn't an aspen tree nearby.

You can't believe how windy it was near the water.  If there had been an aspen anywhere nearby, I bet you could have heard it quaking all the way in Texas!
