March - When Winter Was Still Beautiful

 A quick March getaway to a very cool place nearby.
 We did some relaxing, some sledding, some skiing, and snowmobiling.  It was a real WINTER vacation!


 Ready to go!  This place was located right on a snowmobile trail. 


Mattie- intently listening to big brothers Rip and Snort yipping in the woods (coyotes!) 
We girls did a little sledding before we went skiing.  I honestly think I preferred the sledding.  I guess it's just more my style.

Back home again.  Plenty of snow for fun in the yard.
Like I said, plenty of snow in the yard.  This picture was taken out the west living room window.  It was a beautiful sunset.  It's too bad I'm so tardy with this post, because in March when I took this picture, I would have felt more of the beauty.  Now I feel more of a bitterness, because this very same snow is still here!  A bit less, but still here.  And more is being added to it every few days.  Hmmm....  Well, at least we won't have a drought!!!
