wow, those pics are pretty crazy! Looks like you guys had a great time. I can't imagine snow right now, cause I'm in Vietnam and it has been close to 90 degrees today (and VERY humid!). Enjoy the white Christmas. God bless.

Love the hair! White hair is so dignified.

The weather here has been stubbornly anti-holiday, with temperatures in the high 50's and 60's. Fortunately it has been raining, and I just returned from a most invigorating hike on the biology trail. But I'm excited to exchange my sopping shoes for a couple of feet of powder and some snowshoes :D

San Jose/Sacramento is a far cry from the wild mountains of Maine.

That looks so splendid. I like how you're frowning in the no-snow zone and have big smiles when your eye lashes and eyebrows are frosted over. That's my kind of weather!

Looks like lots of fun! Don't be jealous of our 60 degree weather while walking around in mud shoes (instead of snow shoes)! :s Enjoy the white Christmas extra for those of us who are not so privileged!

Sledding is fun but not as fun as 4 wheeling or snowmobiling in CO.

I'm afraid we differ... machines have their place; but I like the sound of silence.

Just the same, Colorado sounds awesome!
