Snow in Denver

I am over the snow, I am wishing for a snow day - Hh has one tomorrow with a make-up day on the 5th of april ( but we will be on our way back to Denver that day so it will be hooky for her.

Tonight it took us 3 hours to drive out of Boulder and environs and make it home with out to many detours and mishaps. welcome to spring Colorado style.

I am not looking forward to more overnight and into the morning. well off to bed with me.

“PRNDL” word up?

PRNDL a word? Well hh thinks so it was cute and funny, we went to do a little car shopping Tuesday night and when we got in the first vehicle hh says wow this one even come with a "prindle". So S and I look at each other and say what is that? She's pretty jazzed about it at this point and we don't have a clue what it is…. Well she points to the automatic shifter and says " you know a prindle"!! well needless to say we tell her that is not a common term, ask a few of your friends you text and ask your brother J? she says o.k and texts a couple of friends and J, he has no clue and his buddies don't either, her friends don't know. So I tell her text cha cha and see if they give you an answer, and yes they did and it was a term used to identify the gear shifter on an automatic transmission. And so it goes life with children is never dull.

busing it

This is the routes in Boulder for the RTD at the stop I go home from ! Theses shots were taken on Monday night, waiting for the 4:45 bus home :) the temps were in the single digits and the snow was so dry and fluffy you could just bush it away- almost blow and it would have disappeared.

this is the street corner that I cross in the evening to catch the going home bus. the light is not very long there in the direction we cross, but it is still nice to have a stop light.

this is looking toward my building and the flat irons, I love the mountain view and when the hills are covered in snow

Snow day - our way

The front bench with what may be about 20" on the seat it was pretty light and fluffy now.

Neighbor to the south had cool icicles

Snow angels in progress

more process on the angels. looks pretty fluffy

My guess is we won't be grilling today :) about 18 inches or so in the back yard maybe 20

Done with snow angels.

Neighbor tree

Me- glasses are photogray and change to a pretty dark shade in all this light

Yeah we shoveled.

Hh and I shoveled and draged a large fallen branch and trash cans, and made snow angels well she did - it was pretty chilly but still it was beautiful too.

More high kicking maddness, this was the fun stuff and at least they were moving.

snowing this am and cold

this is last winter and it is not quite like this today.

Hh is off at Karate and J and his cousin were going to go to snowboard. haven't heard if this is still the plan.

I have work on scout accounts and one other project then I will be done with my wood badge tickets then it is off to a beading.

in the up coming weeks we have a busy time, we have 3 feb birthdays and valentines. Shrove tuesday is early and easter too this year. so our short leap year will be anything but.

S is not feeling well had a big runny nose yesterday and is still in bed this morning. Maybe I will go snuggle up with him in there before I get to working.
