Snowboarding, Dogs and Other Weird Stuff...

Snowboarding? Yes, we just can't stop. Even though winter is dying a slow death we can still find places that hold on to that season far beyond what would seem normal for most of the country. We love it. I love it.

We have the weekend trips to high spots that still have snow measured in feet, 10 feet, or more in places.

Evenings are reserved for short trips into the mostly dry, snow free hills near home. The dogs love me for the 1 to 2 hour long hikes. It takes the strain of the workday and kills it. Dead.

This hat has been here for years.... I wonder who left it .... on accident no doubt. It blends in nicely and I only saw by chance, being out of the way and all.

The moon has been hidden for days and days. It showed itself briefly, but also beautifully....

Lost Igloo - April 10, 2011

Lost my igloo ... anyone seen it?

We found that the igloo was deeply buried under all the snow that has fallen over the last three months... at least that is what we think.... It may have collapsed.... but who really knows....

I left a couple of items in it, in case I wanted to use it again, with the intent that I would retrieve at that time....well guess that didn't work out so swell.... Not to worry though, another month or two and I will go get my stuff....

Flirting with disaster there boy!!
