December 1, 2017 Getting Ready For Christmas!

Late afternoon sun through
clouds & fog.
Valley fog to the south.












Wednesday 11/29. The sun broke through the clouds and shone most of the day.  Our high was 37.

I printed out the first batch of Christmas cards, decorated and addressed them.  Looking pretty good, I think.  Then I wrapped gifts and got them into boxes for shipping.

I bought some carrots yesterday for the deer.  I cut them into large chunks along with some apples and trudged up the east slope to put them on a stump.  Sure hope the deer find them soon.

Larry and Elsie found huge cougar tracks on the road by the gate.  So now there are at least two of them in the canyon right now.

We started watching the second season of Boston Legal last night and will watch the entire series now.  Love this show!

Thursday 11/30. This last day of November began with a chilly 26 and we were in the fog.  Snow fell for four hours today, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, but we only received 1/2".

JB was outside for a bit doing chores: putting oil in Miss Kitty, checking the oil in the generator, etc.  I stayed inside and finished wrapping Christmas presents.  Only 24 more days until Christmas Eve!  Whoo Hoo!!

Fog rolled back in after the snow stopped falling, but began to clear a bit as we went on our afternoon walk, although it was still thick in the canyons and valleys.  Our high for the day was 32.

Friday 12/1. It is 28 and mostly overcast this morning with valley fog.  I am going Down There again, mainly to pick up mail and packages.

Thought for the day: Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday and all is well.  Guideposts magazine, November 2017.
