LOL, I wondered if anyone would notice the lack of photos on my last few posts before I got a chance to download them off the camera, and Charles did!

Beautiful Sunset
I noticed the eastern sky was colored at sunset time, and knowing that meant the western sky would have brilliant color, I grabbed my camera and went out to check it out and caught this view of the sunset and the pond below our house.

From Fog to Blue Skies
By mid morning the fog was gone and for the first time in a while, I could see blue sky! Not just a bit of blue peeking through the clouds, but big beautiful patches of blue! Lots of melting going on today, the yard is almost bare of snow! This photo was taken on the way to the library

More Snow
I had to laugh when I saw this. It looks like a giant ice cream cone! And here's our yard all covered in powdered sugar again.

Gorgeous Sunrise
It was sunny today and we had a lot of snow melt going on. The north side of our house by the fence has been a frozen mess since it snowed before Christmas and we scraped and shoveled 3 wheelbarrows full and cleared it out.
The clouds rolled in this afternoon and it's looking like another storm is on the way.

What A Day!
I've had a not so fun couple of days! Yesterday, after the new elements were installed in our ETS heater, I noticed a strong smell coming from them. A couple hours later my vision started being weird, I was seeing a black zigzag and things were blurry. I took a nap and felt better, then that evening it happened again, and this time I had a headache along with it. We made a trip to the ER, where they examined me and had a CT scan done and didn't find any sign of a stroke, tumor or bleeding in the brain. They released me and told me to go see Dr. Miles, an ophthalmologist in the near future. After another episode this morning, I called and got in to see him this afternoon. He didn't find any problems with my eyes, but said my symptoms are classic migraine symptoms and he thinks that's what I'm having. Not fun! I am hoping that the cause is a chemical given off by the heater elements and once we get that out of the air, I won't have any more problems! The roads had mostly cleared up by the time we left, just a few spots where blowing snow had covered the road. We enjoyed the view along the highway of a winter wonderland, so pretty! Wow, looking at this picture, it doesn't look like we're on a paved highway, but we were!

Quiet Day
We found the Bob's Biscuit and gravy mix at Bashas that we haven't been able to find up here! We asked them to order it and they finally got it. We've had it at Charles' and love it. Yea, Bashas! We had biscuits and gravy and eggs for supper, yumm.

Sunday
She had so much fun taking pictures of her napping Pa, she says he's so cute when he's asleep.
LOL, bet you thought it was going to be a photo of his face! (She was playing ring toss with the pillows, throwing them at his legs.)
On the way to take her home, she took this mug shot of her elephant, she said he'd been bad, so she had to get some police shots of him.
It was a fun weekend! All pictures here were taken by Jessie, I haven't downloaded mine from the camera yet.
Here's a poem Jessie wrote this weekend. She learned about acrostic poems in in school recently and wanted to share with us. We would write the word for her and she came up with the poem. She even talked me into writing a few, it was fun!
How I love horses, they're always
Of beauty. Horses aren't
Rare. They can be
Skittish because they are scared. They
Eat hay and horse treats. I
Still love horses even if they are expensive.
She does love horses and was so happy that she got to help Sue feed Misty and Santana this weekend.
We saw these antelope (pronghorns) on the way to Vernon and stopped on the way home to take their picture.

Happy Birthday Mom!
Andy's family took the quilt we made to her after she got home and she told me that was the perfect end to a great day, she loved it and loved that Andy thought of her and instigated the project.

Happy New Year!
I have decided to try and complete project 365 this year. Project 365 is taking a photo each and every day of the year! I started last year, but I was late starting and forgot some days, this year I'm going to try and remember!
I took the tree down today, good to have that done, now to get the rest of the Christmas stuff put away!
