The, sort of, warm spell continues. Drop dead gorgeous during the day. We went cross country skiing just south of town (CB) on nice groomed trails Sunday. Beautiful and we're baby stepping our way to work on technique. We bought skis, boots, and poles on sale so we're definitely committed. Another outing soon. Gotta play in the white stuff.
Second Gunnison history class last night. A guest speaker (Dr. Bruce Bartleson) professor emeritus of geology at WSCU. Wow, great lecture and slide show. A whole new perspective on our mountains here. Dinosaurs, glaciers, towering peaks that used to be even taller before volcanic activity. AND, this is a big one for those of us looking for this, he did confirm there
are petroglyphs outside Almont. We were in the right area, family! A summer project.

Animals on the move. Last night 6 white snowshoe rabbits running all over the road as we came back home from class. Why? No clue. No sign of coyotes which was a surprise.
