Time got away from me - again. The days seem to fly by faster and faster. Once again all white photos. We had almost a foot of snow a week ago, and the latest storm came through yesterday, this time only dropping a couple of inches. There was enough floating around Colorado to make part of Paul and James drive up with not the best road conditions, but made it here just fine. Ralph came in a day early and missed any bad travel. The guys are off skiing and snowboarding today. Spring break hurray! Missing Sherry, Katie, and Krissy though...
Snowshoeing has been challenging with the pile of snow plus drifts. I sunk to thigh level on some of the trail. Today the trail was more manageable, but have learned it's only as good as the next snow. How did the people of long ago manage to make this work? What an easy life the modern world is - at least physically.
Lots of work going on for class, Gunnison Country, to be specific. Research paper - it's been so long, I'd forgotten how to do footnotes etc. Still have genetics, but they're on spring break - gosh even for online, and philosophy continues at University of Edinburgh - evidently they break at Easter no matter when the date is.
Late on listing books read also, things a teeny bit out of control. Compiling taxes is next - now there's some fun. Naughty in Nice by Rhys Bowen, China Court by Rumer Godden, and The Forgotten Affairs of Youth by Alexander McCall Smith. All very good, with only Rumer Godden as a newcomer, at least to me, she wrote over 60 books, sadly passed away in 1998, but lots of new titles for me.
Enjoying the company for the next few days, and there's a possible plan for me to try snowmobiling with Mark and Ralph. Big, loud, powerful - sounds like fun, I'll let you know...
