Monday night Nov. 21st

It is still snowing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I love the snow once it finally arrives.

The snow is beautiful!

Winter Storm Warning

Winter might be starting tonight. Heavy snows are expected in the Cascades and we might be seeing some on our mountain. We still have a few things to do to get ready. Today we will be putting the temp. garage up for the rhino. Rich gets his snow blower on the tractor. I have to make a run to the recycling center. By the weekend, we are to be in the Arctic air blast - highs in the teens and twentys. Lows in the single digits.

Yesterday was good.

We met up with friends from the Seattle area at one of our favorite places: the Icicle Ridge Winery. It was wine pick up day for club members, so we enjoyed some hot, delicious mushroom soup and warm rolls along with a tasting, of course. It was a cold, rainy day and the soup was perfect. I would highly suggest the "WHITE MERLOT!" It was incredible. And it will be perfect with Thanksgiving dinner.
Then, Rich and I were off to the Leavenworth Rotary fund raiser. It was a western theme, really fun. We were volunteers helping at, you guessed it --the Saloon.

White Winterland

The first snow and some is sticking. The trees are so pretty with the white snow hanging on the branches. I don't think it is going to stay long, but it is very cold. The high today: 38 degrees.

Sad Day

We had to put our little Brizzy Girl to sleep today. She was 17 yrs old. Andrew got her in the 2nd grade. Nik was 5 yrs old. That was the most difficult thing I think I've ever had to do. Keep us all in your prayers.
