Snow Much Fun

I'm trying to leave messes and have some fun this year. When the weather is right it is time to take off rather than pick up sticks in the yard. I keep seeing that life is short and pretty fickle, so I'm making time for family and friends rather than cleaning. It's hard for me to let go... but the sticks are still in the yard, the laundry basket is still full tonight and it's OK. They'll be there on Monday.

When the sun came out this morning, it had been a long time for the Pacific Northwest. Hubby was off work and we decided to go snowshoeing today. Salmon Ridge SnoPark where we usually go did not have enough snow so we drove up to the Mt. Baker Ski area. They have some snow shoeing trails on the cat tracks. Our first choice had a full parking lot so we went to the newer area and took off. It was gorgeous! Snow, sunshine and Hubby, my favorites!


As we enjoyed a tailgate picnic it started to snow. Perfect.

We walked in the door and friends Holly and Meagan stopped by for a visit. They were very kind about the mess I'd left to go snowshoeing. They seemed not to care!

I had friends in my house with a mess and everything is OK. I guess I can leave a mess more often! Lesson learned.

After hot tubbing, steak and salad for dinner with Max, we are calling it a night.

A very good day, a very good day indeed.
