Mt. Hood, snowless as of Dec. 4, 2008, but...

...snow is predicted later in the week and/or over the weekend. I imagine local winter sports' lovers are waiting anxiously for the white stuff to come on in and make it right on the mountain.

I took these two photos from the work parking garage roof, about 60 miles from the mountain. On the bus ride over the Hawthorne Bridge, I saw that "the mountain was out," so I rode the elevator up one flight and then trekked up to the top of the garage, glad that I had my zoom lens in my rolling black bag. Hence, one with the zoom, one with the regular lens.

How about that cloud formation? I've never seen one like it. Have you?
