Be careful what you wish for...

There has been a lot of grumbling here in Big Bear lately about the lack of snow this season. Now after nearly three straight days of heavy snowfall everyone is saying enough already! Of course the fresh snow is great for our local ski resorts... I'm sure the skiers and snowboarders will be up here in droves this weekend.

I spotted this little guy during a break in the weather today. If you click on the picture you can see a little speck of snow on the tip of his nose.

Not to be outdone, Trooper also has a blob of snow on his nose!


I don't usually decorate very much for the holidays but I saw this wreath at Costco and I couldn't resist buying it. We're keeping our fingers crossed for nice weather tomorrow. After three days of gloomy skies it will be wonderful to see the sun again!

How fun to see your snow close up. As I drove to class this morning from the beach in So Cal, I could see the mountains covered in white and thought it BEAUTIFUL at a distance, but it's even more so here. We've got blue skies currently so maybe you'll get them later?
Hugs and blessings,

That is an especially adorable shot of that fat squirrel and Trooper. Wow! You're getting a lot of snow. It's so pretty.
