It came but it didn’t stick around! The news and The Weather Channel said we could expect 2-4″ of wet snow today. We very well might have received that much, but with yesterday’s temperature hovering around 80* the ground was still too warm. Plus we haven’t had a good freeze yet (nope — that’s going […]

Back in the Rockies
Our trip to California went off without a hitch — that always makes for a nicer vacation. We got in early on Friday morning, giving us plenty of time to rest up for a night of Shanghai Rummy with family and friends (I won). Saturday was Jen’s wedding. Hands down the wedding with the best […]
Changing Things Around
I got bored of the previous theme, so I’m trying out some new ones…haven’t been able to get the weather to work yet, so bear with me during the transitions.
Meet Frank
The latest addition to our family is a bear we named Frank. He was hand-carved from pine by John and his chainsaw. We saw him in Ned and thought he would fit in great in our house and we would enjoy freaking out Lava. Take a look at his super cute pictures!
Into the Mountains We Go
Today after church Noah and I took a drive up Boulder Canyon to get away from the city and check out the scenery…with changing leaves and all. We went through Nederland (Ned), then up to Eldora, back to Ned. On the way back into Boulder we hiked back to Boulder Falls. We took lots of […]

We got down there at 8am this morning, the first part of the day we went through the disaster services aspect of training. […]
More fiction
I’ve just posted a few paragraphs of something I wrote that was inspired by yesterday morning’s storm clouds. I have not yet decided what to affiliate this section with or if it should stand alone. You can read it here. Remember to ask me for the page password if you do not have it yet […]
Time to break out those sweaters
A change in the season has brought an immediate change to our weather, and I mean immediate. The last week of summer we had 90* or near 90* weather. But on Sunday, when the seasons officially changed from summer to autumn in the pre-dawn hours, we said goodbye to our sun and heat. Really amusing […]
Remi’s Journey
Remi left this morning before the sun had risen to head out to CA with my dad and sister. Poor puppy has traveled a lot in such a short period of time (Nebraska to NE Colorado, NE Colorado to Denver area, and now to CA). She also gets carsick and has already done so twice […]
Meet Remi
A cute little 6 1/2 month old purebred Bichon puppy we picked up today. Her full name is Remieli, which means Mercy of God in Hebrew. Check out her pictures here.
