A sample of the Christmas trees I am making with pine cones. |
Monday 11/27. I made a big pot of dog broth from the turkey carcass that Elsie sent home with me. That and crafting were my projects for the day. A few days ago I began reading Origins by Dan Brown. It's good, but all his Langdon books have pretty much the same plot line.
The clouds cleared a bit and the sun shone most of the day. There are still some large patches of snow around, but most of it is gone. Our high for the day was 37 with an icy wind.
Tuesday 11/28. It was 31 and overcast this morning. Snow began falling about 8:30 as I went out to bring in firewood before going Down There. I was on my way before 9:00 to pick up packages and buy a few groceries. Also found time to wander through Hobby Lobby again. Christmas music playing, still 50% off Christmas decorations and crafting supplies - how nice!
The predicted storm moved in while I was Down there. It was snowing all around on the hills, but raining in town. Halfway up the paved canyon road I encountered the snow and there was more than an inch already at Larry and Elsie's. Got all the packages and groceries moved into Miss Kitty, then about 1/2 mile up the road, my bladder decided it was full. No way I was going to get out and make yellow snow.
I was home by 1:30 where we had received almost 2" of snow. By the time the snow stopped falling around 4:00 pm, we had 2-1/2". Our high for the day was 31.
Wednesday 11/29. It is 30 and breezy this morning with thin clouds hiding most of the sky. I really have to get going on making our Christmas cards today.
Thought for the day: Sometimes I look in the mirror and think - Oh that can't be right!
