This set is from the “snow event” last week. A couple of days after we arrived a system came through and dropped 7 to 8″ of snow. A perfect amount. Not too much that everything shut down but enough for beautiful scenery. Kai and Nora had fun with snowballs and snow angels and we even started a snow fort off the front deck. We originally used a snow shovel to move the snow but quickly switched to a 4-wheeler with a snow plow on the front to mound up the snow. We had a great little fort for a while but since then temps soaring into the 30’s and a patch of rain have turned it into a dirty mound of snow strangely out of place.

Kai and Nora spent the day with Grandma Ellen and Grandpa Art. Most such trips begin with pastries from the Spooner Bakery.
