Fire in a winter wonderland.....

Fun with christmas cookies

Kai was staring at me like "who are you? you're not Dad."




Having fun frosting cookies!! The were sure good this week for dessert after every meal. And the occasional snack.
Fun with card games. The morning after a little sleep over.

ALTA!!! AND A BIT OF FUN IN THE CANYON

It was snowing so hard that they were bombing the Mtn for at least an hour. We couldn't even get on the lift till 11:00. I was tweaking out and almost left after the first run. They only opened a lower lift while they did some avalanche control. Went to the car and decided to wait till they opened the main lift. It was a great decision. I skied waist deep snow for the entire afternoon.


Did some hiking off of the road in AF canyon about 15 min from the house. I had a blast. I never realized how difficult it was hiking in deep snow. Had to use my skis like an ice axe. It was well worth the effort!!


After 2 good runs.

Let it snow! AF Canyon

Took a trip up the canyon today and lucked out with the snow. There was about 1.5 feet at the reservoir and it was still falling. It was nice to drive on some snow covered roads.


These kids were building a jump on the bank to gap the road. It didn't look possible with the size of the jump they had.


Elk on the road across from the supermarket off of the main road.

Day one in Tahoe

Squaw valley and the tram on the top of the mtn.I love you tree. These things were huge!!!

Tahoe!!

Snow!

Took the car up today and the sun came out just when we got to the top parking lot. The road to the top is now closed. Bummer, but that means that winter is here.

I wish my flu would fly away!!

Feeling sick this week. Took Tuesday off because I felt horrible after last Saturday's bike ride. I figures I'd put some more pictures that I came across while searching through the files. This one is from Antelope Island.
Bryce Canyon National Park
The Tetons. Great day on the way back from PA.

The site Revisited

The waterfall in the middle of the screen is where we were cliff-ed out in the summer. I don't miss that for a second. I just wish we had some visitors again. We miss family and friends. Hopefully we wee them soon.

Organizer Barbato

Installed this shelf last night. It matches the existing shelves. It was pretty inexpensive. About 10 bucks at wal-mart for the whole setup. Now i have much more for the "ski and bike stuff". I hope we dont have company with a large wardrobe. :)
