At least I got a couple pretty pics first!
And then I looked down and realized it was melting faster than it was landing.
(As seen under this shot of one of my apricot trees.)
If you look outside now, you'd never know anything had happened. I don't know if I should be happy or sad about this. Hubby and I are leaving for a mini-vacation tomorrow. Our anniversary is next week (married 5 years, together a lot longer) and we "won" a trip to Massanutten. Of course, there is a time share offer involved but we qualify and we're willing to listen to the pitch to get the "free" stay. We'll have to pay for everything but the room fees, but in this economy that's a heck of a break. And we haven't been anywhere in years. Two years ago we went and visited my Mom for three days at her house in Florida. Three years ago we went to my Mom's - along with the rest of the family - for a family Thanksgiving. Four years ago we went to family in RI to bury Gram and have Christmas with family. I think we're due.
Was just watching the news, and discovered that Massanutten got 17" of snow. That's right - SEVENTEEN INCHES.
I guess we're hitting the slopes on Friday with the snow tubes. Hubby and I can't be trusted on skis, there is no doubt we would injure ourselves - the bets would just be how badly.
And it is a given we'll be hanging out in the pool. Indoor, heated waterpark with lots of stuff? We're there!
And we have a wonderful neighbor that will make sure our furry children have food and water while we're gone. Hubby has already said that laptop is staying home. So, this will literally be the first vacation I won't be remotely working. OMG. I don't know what to do. I better grab some books!
In the meantime, check out my Pinterest board. What an addiction that has become for me - luckily it is still free, except for my time. I didn't understand the appeal, but I started slow and now have 130+ boards with over 12,000 pins. Good thing I don't sleep!
