And we're back at Star Mt and Happy New Year

Whee and it's 2015.  We are back at Star Mt. in the snowy winter wonderland. Took 3 days to get back here across 8 states. And a little more adventure than we were hoping for,with an urgent care visit in Missouri (very friendly people there by the way and it was New Year's Eve) for Mark who caught the flu right after Christmas and was not getting better. Warning for everyone, he got a flu shot (as did I) but this year's virus has morphed and you've got a 50/50 chance of the vaccine working.

Had a slightly bizarre New Year's Eve in Kansas. Ordered in pizza, Mark took his heavy cough meds, and after falling asleep early (of course) were awakened by a fire alarm at-,wait for it -11:59pm. Yes, some joker thought it would be a funny ha ha to send all the motel guests in a panic.

We had a lot of snow happening while we were gone, and the ski resort is happy. Our community struggled a bit to get roads cleared with massive winds added in, but all was great as we drove in. Never fear, plenty of time (3 months at least) for lots more snowstorms. It is pretty darn gorgeous I just have to readjust to boots and gloves and hats and all that jazz. Snowshoeing is calling!

I'll leave you with the last few photos from our Virginia visit. Sad to leave those precious girls!

They love their Daddy!

Wishes for a wonderful 2015 for everyone.
