Sunny & Frozen

Sorry for the lag in posting, it's the season when time seems to accelerate: lists grow longer, days grow shorter.

We've been having a deep freeze here in the PNW, but with it has come brilliant sunny days - a true gift for Seattle's SADD-afflicted citizens. If you've never heard of Cliff Mass, and are curious about our weather and its vagaries, check out his blog from time to time - he's a true weather wonk, and sheds some light on the difficulties of predicting the weather in this region. He also posts some great charts, graphs, and photos from time to time!

Bob and I are hurtling towards our departure for WY (which boasted the nation's lowest temperature yesterday @ -29F in Farson!!). We're driving to see the folks, planning to stop in Jackson on the way and spend a night or two, hopefully will get a chance to go on a ranger-guided snowshoe excursion in Teton Nat'l Park if they get some snow.

Work has been busy for us both, and we're looking forward to getting our cards and packages shipped out, the car packed and pointed east. We depart Friday, if all goes well.
