We are really looking forward to winter since moving up here back in June! It's been way to long since I've seen a real winter. 26 years in the Navy and being at sea level at every place I've been stationed really had us missing winter, let alone four real seasons. The aspens are in full gold up here for about the last couple of weeks but are now starting to lose their leaves. Had our first snow last week, only about an inch and was gone before noon but Pike's Peak has had snow off and on for the last month.
I've been cutting and splitting wood for the wood stove for the past few weeks. Don't have a clue how much wood we'll need to get through to spring but I've got plenty of more wood to cut and split that should keep me busy until the snow gets to deep.
And I've already got me skis for the first time in many years and looking forward to skiing on real snow, not that man made stuff.
