Slippin' and Slidin' !

With the best of intentions, we got up sort of early, got our butts in gear and headed up the road for a load of firewood.  After we'd driven a few miles we were surprised that the road was becoming narrower and narrower as the snow became thicker and thicker!  We had no idea the snow line was already so close and we realized we were not going to be able to get to our Deadwood hangout.  We were barely able to turn the 4-Runner around, but finally we were headed back toward home.  We found a little pine on the way back and so we stopped and pretty much filed the back of the truck.....not the best wood in the world, but it'll work until the real cold weather gets here.
     While we were cutting wood Callie had her first introduction to snow and it was a match made in Heaven !!  She is so good at entertaining herself and the snow was certainly a plus......she was hilarious !
    We got home and warmed up some soup left from last night and I got started on the Halloween cookies.   I looked out on the deck and found Callie snoozing on her favorite napping site......one of the picnic tables outside !  


   Tomorrow Tess is coming down to attend a friend's wedding and so Molly, Mom and I are meeting her first for lunch in Auburn.....it's been two weeks since I've seen Bryn.....I can hardly wait !
