Google is not cooperating for a photo today.
Wednesday 11/21. On our morning walk there were lots of fresh deer tracks on the path up to the peak. So when we got back to the house, I filled a bag with apples and hiked back up to the top to stick apples on the gate. I have to put them up where the deer can see them and Dinga can't get them. Hopefully the deer will find them.
A light snow began falling a little after 11:00 am, much earlier than predicted. It lasted about two hours, but only stuck on the frosty areas. There is something so peaceful about falling snow.
I worked on Christmas gifts and made a hostess gift for Elsie for tomorrow. The overcast kept it a dark and sleepy day. JB took a nap and I should have. Our high for the day was 34.
Thursday 11/22. Thanksgiving Day began with 28, partly cloudy skies and valley fog. The apples I put on a stump on the west side of the house for the deer are gone! So glad they found them. They didn't seem interested in the dried corn, but maybe they will when there are no more apples.
JB made a pan of novelak (Lithuanian dressing) from his Mother's recipe to take with us. We left at 1:15 pm, driving on a white road all the way down. Such a wonderful afternoon with good friends who have become family. We have so much to be thankful for.
Larry and Elsie's place was in the fog, but as we were eating someone noticed that it was snowing! Really snowing. Before long there was 1" and the kids and their grandfather (Papa Larry) were out playing in it. We left at 5:00 pm and drove home through a winter wonderland. There were two inches of snow on the ground at Rose Camp. The snowfall stopped and the skies cleared around 7:00 pm, allowing the full moon to shine on our snow covered home. Beautiful!
I tried getting on-line to look for Black Friday deals on DVD's, but Google was not cooperating.
Friday 11/23. It is 30 this morning with partly cloudy skies and 2-1/2" of snow. We will be driving down to the Gridder's tomorrow for dinner with them.
Thought for the day: Gratitude is the best attitude.
