Today we WOKE UP (Gretchen will get this as we saw a T shirt in Korea with this on it?!) to a light snow. When Dale and I were out cleaning off the Subaru at 6 am, it was so light and glimmery, like little shiny diamonds glistening in the light of the street lamps. Beautiful! By the time the puppies and I went for our morning stroll, the wind had picked up and it was snowing horizontal to the ground...not so beautiful. It reminded me of when Mom and I got caught driving in that blizzard last winter which had to be THE most terrifying experience of my life...I never would have made it home without her! After that experience I declared I was done living in the mountains! Funny that we should be living on the Front Range now...I can enjoy from afar. But, I do love snow. We had so much snow in BV last winter which is fun if you are a kid living in Cleveland Ohio and you can make tunnels but not so fun if you are an adult who has to shovel it! So I will post some pictures of last winter's snow in case you missed them. You can see the work as the pile is as tall as me (which is about 5 feet you know) and the play of snowshoeing and making snow angels. Enjoy the winter wonderland!

And here I am, spending Thanksgiving in shorts and a tank top!!!! Ha ha ha. I found your blog and looks like you might be outdoing Gretchen and I both!!!!
Shovel snow? Wasn't there encouragement to move to CO a few years ago including, "Oh, the snow's really no big deal. It's just powder & you just sweep it off?" No offense to you, Dale, but Betty you look great!
