Yesterday I got to relax and play...

Today, it was up and at 'em! More white stuff and plenty of slippery roads,
but the sun came out too.

Our house is darling in white.


Since Hans was able to work yesterday while I stayed off the roads and close to home, today it was my turn to have some help getting to and from the office. Just down the street we took in the view from the top of Mom and Dad's hill...


Hans later managed a peek from a little farther down that hill...


For the first time EVER we had ice INSIDE our truck today. Hans was out there scraping and scraping and couldn't figure out why there was still frost on the windows until finally he realized it was on the inside. Poor 4Runner, she's been through allot.


I stole a few great pictures from Hans that he took while running around dealing with the to-do list today. There are some amazing little farms and such on this Island, but the trees are my favorite.


We have a full day tomorrow as we head off Island for our traditional family Christmas "dinner" and another snow storm is supposed to start blowing through in the late afternoon. Apparently we're also expecting very high winds and freezing rain into Sunday which is just fabulous considering how much we DO NOT need to lose another doctor day at work on Monday. This storm crap is painful for our local economy, if we thought it was bad before there's nothing like some snow and ice to really put things in perspective. I hope you're all fairing well, wherever you are, happy weekend...

...and stay warm!

I'm sorry it's so bad for the economy there and does things like ice the inside of your truck (oh my goodness) but it sure is gorgeous!
