Tumtum

evergreen sentinels guard my untrod path through sunshine and shadow

9 inches of snow fell last Wednesday at "the rock" leaving a winter wonderland version for us to enjoy on our almost daily walks. The first walk after the snowfall was especially magical, as the fading sun cast it's golden light on the rock tips and distant trees. The cold preserved the snow for a Sunday cross country skiiing adventure with Val and friends.

Bob made lots of progress on the house, with mom's room and bathroom nearing completion. Amber painted the ceilings and finished up "her" room. Now, back in Iowa, Amber is supposed to finish up getting rid of "stuff". Bob stayed in Washington to get a bit more done on his projects before heading east to help out.

Nice country and perfect weather make a beautiful picture. I used to live in Chesaw north of there. Glad to see you are keeping up the good work!
