Ready for Snow? We woke up Monday Morning to a winter wonderland! How crazy!! For the first hour or so of the day I was outside shaking snow off the trees in hopes of saving them from the weight of the snow. Because the first snow came before the leaves fell, the weight is too much for the tree to handle and they snap/fall/bend in ways that they can not recover from. Trees were down everywhere and in Lone Tree many people did not have power.... The positive side A start to a GREAT SKI SEASON! Although most of the snow will melt with a 70degree day this week, the mts will have an amazing base! Breck got 18"!!! Now the race is on for which base will open first. SO, if anyone is interested in skiing Colorado this year, check out www.passwagon.com from some prices on tickets you can only get through the end of the month. AND we close on our place on the 27th of this month, so you are welcome to stay with us if you need to or need a ride from the airport (we are located right off E-470). Im glad the snow is melting, I wasnt quite ready for winter but I love living somewhere the weather keeps changing! Fall, Winter, Spring, all in one week. Last but not least is a fun picture I found while brosing through the digital of the last big snow we experienced....from our cute apt in Indiana and a night of sledding with the Johnsons!
