Leaving, melting snow, and Happy Easter

And it's goodbye to Star Mt., until mid June. Frantic errands, packing, calls, emails, blah, blah, blah. It''s the long car trip with our designated restaurant stops to keep us going through the endless miles.

Last of many things happening this week. Snow shoe, nordic, downhill skiing, snowmobile, and dog sledding all ending. Never done the dog sled thing, Heather and I saw them careening down the street,with dogs barking at the top of their lungs. Wonder what they get up to in the off season. We ate at Le Bosquet with friends and they are closing as of this Sunday for the requisite 6 weeks. Only a hardy few will stay open.

This photo looks identical to one I took last year. Only difference is last year's was taken April 24. The warm temps and a spitting of snow in the last couple weeks make for early melting.

We will miss the initial greening up and the four legged creatures coming back. Flap, do not eat my daylilies while I'm gone. And the hummingbirds, oh dear, hopefully some will hang around for when we get back. Weird how possessive we have gotten over what are completely wild, non caring about us, creatures. And why you ask are you staying away so long?  There are changes afoot in our life that bring Florida in the picture much more. To be revealed in a future post. Soon...

Happy Easter and welcome spring!
