A White Christmas!
It snowed big-time in our part of Jack's Canyon the night before the night before Christmas.
I got up at five a.m. to go to the bathroom and shined my little flashlight out the window to find the south forty piled with snow. I ran to the other parts of the house to open the shades and look outside: mounds of snow all over! Huge pines, pinons, and Arizona cypress with limbs drooping under the weight of so much snow.
When it got light enough, around 7:20, we hooked up Shasta and went out for the most glorious walk in the mist shrouded joy-inspiring flakey-whiteness of our corner of the world.
I've never felt more like a kid on Christmas!
We ran into neighborhood friends who had the same idea. Enjoy the photos.
To all of you Merry Christmas and to all a good night.
Love, Peace, Joy, Laughter and Good Food!
