Yes, Virginia, we will have a White Christmas even if Bing doesn't sing!

All of this beautiful white stuff has resulted in schools being cancelled 3 days this week (Tuesday, Thursday and Friday) so students are getting an extra long Christmas break.  So far the roads haven't been difficult to drive on as long as you slow down and watch out for everyone around you.


Winter in Eastern Oregon, 2008.  Here is the front of our house.  After Aaron shoveled off the front porch earlier this week, it is now completely covered again.  We can't use the front door.

Our beautiful back yard.

Picnic anyone?  

               The neighbors appreciate

               Aaron clearing the side-

               walks and driveways.

The snow-blower is a gas hog.  One

neighbor gave him $5 and then also

gave him a gallon of gas.
