It rained for five days in a row and this is our reward. I took this picture from the patio outside the break room at Edmunds.com. It's amazing how even the telephoto lens on my little point-n-shoot camera collapses the distance between the photographer and the subject. The highest peak you see is Mount San Antonio, known locally as Mount Baldy, which is 10,052 feet. We don't get many views like this so we have to savor it. Many people don't even know there are mountains around Los Angeles because we can't see them often. A friend has a funny saying: "Oh look! They put the mountains up today."
