Bouncing from one thing to another

Still winter here folks. First of the week-snow, then almost 24hrs of wind (which acted like new snow - blew in our driveway, needing plowing out with truck twice, plus dozer, thanks everyone), and now we're due another storm tonight. We do need all the snow we can get (for water later on) so not unhappy if it keeps coming, just not disrupting travel please. Mark flies out again Tuesday, and we have company coming late next week -Paul, James, and Ralph. Yes, indeed, the fun keeps on coming!

More snowshoeing and cross country skiing. Yes, having to blaze our trail in the woods - AGAIN. At least its good exercise. Had to delay the skiing a day due to nordic races raising money for cancer research happening right in "our" area. Good for them, and of course they were wearing costumes. Very normal, the abnormal here.

cross country skiing dad - there's a toddler in that pod!

CB is still hopping with ski groups in and out. Those colorful shuttle buses busy, busy back and forth town to ski mountain. We're on the last few weeks of the mountain ski season, then all goes quiet until mid-May.

There does seem to be a little shift in the animal activity. Seeing ducks and geese around, horses seemed extra frisky this morning, and we have eyes peeled for what will be the gigantic calving season in a couple of weeks.

Ha,ha not an animal, at least I don't think so
Had a chance to do my normal walk in the woods in between the snow and the wind and the whatever. Beautiful...

Classes are fine, especially since I decided to blow off the weekly genetics quizzes - still watching the video lectures, but enough of this math insanity... Philosophy lectures and quizzes are no problem, and working on the paper due at the end of the Gunnison country class. Whee - all ends in a few weeks - will I have withdrawal do you think?
