Awesome! How wonderful is that?!
I'm jealous, Lon. I love being atop a snow-capped mountain. Visited Breckenridge at the end of June back in 2000. Hiking up into the snow was so amazing.
There's a bear lives in my mother's neighbourhood. She's awakened to bear paw prints on the window of the door to the sunroom (up stairs to get there as the room is on stilts) and her BBQ being hurled across the yard because the smell of salmon was there, but not the salmon itself. A little scary, but also quite cool.
Love your adventures.
Love and warm hugs,
