Cold, Holidays, and the Lake House

We had planned to have a visitor for Thanksgiving, but winter storms had other plans. That along with a serious cold snap, made us decide to bug out for the holiday. So we went to our fallback location at the lake.

We miss all our friends in Colorado, and I really miss all our kids. But the holiday was ok and it's always comfortable here at the lake house.

It was a chance to catch up on yard work at the lake house. One of my big peeves from last season was that there were years of leaves that had to be cleaned up. So hopefully getting a jump on that now will save me some work next spring.

Pellets for the stove are much cheaper here, so we'll load up before heading back to the cabin. I got a couple new blinds on a Black Friday sale, and some buckshot, I look forward to getting back up the hill and trying to put some meat in the freezer.

Should be meeting with a guy this week to get serious about putting a roof on the cabin. Then I can get on with the water catchment system. Always plenty to do, if I have the desire to do it.
