Day 26: Snow, football, and COLD!

We finally got the snow.  Southern Colorado got 2-4' (that little ' thingy means FEET!) of snow, and we finally got some super fluffy snow here;  8" yesterday and ~4" more today.  The bad news is that it was  frigid, with wind-chills well below -35 degrees.   So,  we knocked off early, came back to the house to watch some football.   (What the hell was Brett Favre thinking when he threw that pass? )

Sorry, no mountain pictures;  taking out my camera on the mountain today would have been instant frostbite! And if I had taken a picture,  it would look like a 1950's television broadcast: snow on snow.   But we've been asking for it for 3 weeks and we are finally getting it!   The snow was so soft,  you couldn't feel your skis.  (Or was that an effect of having frozen feet?  Who cares?  It was still fun!)

Tomorrow is my last day of the 4 day weekend and Phil and Kay's last day of their visit;  partly cloudy and warmer,  with lots of fresh snow. Wahoo!
