Mountains
I was born and raised in Nevada, which is quite mountainous. I’ve been going to Tahoe for vacations since I was a baby. I’ve grown to love the mountains. I love winter sports, I love pine forests, I love mountain biking, I love lakes, I love the mountains. Mountains are some of the most beautiful landscape features in the world. In Douglas County, Nevada, near Minden, you can be in the Carson Valley and see the tall mountains just spring up from the ground; there aren’t even any foothills. They just start right there. It’s flat and then…mountains. It’s crazy. And then when you’re on the top of Kingsbury Grade, you have a million-dollar view of the valley. So no, Nevada isn’t just all desert.
Which reminds me, I’m in Tahoe, Nevada right now. :)
