We picked Christine up at noon and drove to Utah. It is President's Weekend holiday and she gets tomorrow and Monday off from school. In so many years past, we traditionally go skiing. But this year we made the trip for two reasons: so Christine could spend some time with Taylor, and so she could have her surgery consult with the oral surgeon.
The trip was nice. Uneventful. I drove from home to St. George and Duff drove the rest of the way. We had a small detour in Springville off the interstate. They sure are doing a lot of road construction on the 15. I wonder why they didn't just do it all when they were preparing for the Olympics. Anyway--
We got to the cabin and it is always like coming home. Darla knows right where her dish should be and waits patiently until I fill it with food and water. She runs to the kennel and grabs all her toys and brings them to the great room.
There is a lot of snow and it is cold. The weather says to expect more tomorrow and Saturday. I sure hope so!

We Decided To Go
The rain storm came and went and the hill held and seemed to take the additional moisture so Duff and I decided to go to the cabin afterall for a few days. More rain is coming tomorrow but we are confident Mike and Adrianne can handle what comes up. They say it's just supposed to be like the one on Sunday to Monday.
It is beautifully white with snow. Cold and cozy. The rain they predict for Cali is supposed to start tonight here as snow. Happy Day. I could use some time to just hunker down and be still.
Jan and Ann picked us up and we stopped at Jan's to get the truck and visit for a bit. The kids all had a good Christmas and Christine enjoyed spending the night with the cousins. Meredith's sister, Kristen and her family were here and everyone all went on the Heber Creeper to Soldier Hollow to go tubing for the afternoon. Duff and I and Shaun stayed and regrouped. Yesterday they had all gone ice-skating down in the outdoor rink in town. Jan and Ann came up to bring the cousins and go with them. They all had a really good time.
