Winter Desperation

This sign was on HWY 421 at the Baptist Church in Boone. We are now on record for the most snowfall and snowy days. Note the snowman in town.

Ice Cream Sandwhich of Snow

This will be a winter to remember! We received another foot of snow on the 6 inches already on the ground. Then add a layer of ice and another 4". We are hoping to get out of the drive today!

January Winter

Mr. Winter has hit us hard in the mountains. Before the semester started I was able to ride a few times on clear roads, but the past few weekends have brought ice, cold, and plenty of snow. Jennifer, Betsy, and Zachary came up this past weekend for his first ski trip. Zac made it 2 hours in ski school and dropped out. We got a text on the mountain and had to return to pick him up. I don't think the group ski lesson was his style. Thanks to Betsy, she took him under her wing and he skied down the big mountain. We had a great day! Another foot of snow this weekend! Maybe we'll try XC skiing instead.
