Winter is Officially Here...

Well, winter is here. For the first time since April, we have turned on the furnace. Last night it was cold. (How cold was it?) It was cold enough that the all day rain we had yesterday turned to ice on the cars, the grass, the trees.... We drove into town through the pass and there was snow on the mountain. True it was the 2nd snowfall on the mountain this autumn, but it stayed. The other one, back in September, was gone by the time we were headed home. This snow was still there at sunset. Bleh....

The only good thing about winter is that it is the start of hunting season. Opening day is in two weeks. Hurrah! It's been a long six months. Soon, the hounds & I will be out chasing rabbits for dinner.

Yep... winter is here.
