Update on the Camp Bird Road update

 OC Road & Bridge:  "CR361 will reopen for the weekend.  Significant progress was made and it was determined the culvert at Senator Gulch will not suffer a failure.  CR361 will close again on Monday for further repairs.  Closures may happen over the weekend if flooding continues."

All quiet

 It's looking like the bomb cyclone and atmospheric river that's hitting the northwest will be coming through Colorado next week.  We have chances of snow Sunday through Wednesday, with the best chances on Tuesday and Wednesday.  We only have 18 inches so far. Yesterday was a better day for Dempsey, who has been struggling, because Alex and Dustin let Frankie out to play with our boy, and watching those two dogs romp and play bow and race around did wonderful things for my mood, as I'm sure it did for him.  Then Sequoia and Mango raced across the frozen pond and joined in for a bit.  Dempsey has never been without Mirabella, and so he is as sad as Mike and I are. Walking along the pond this morning, we saw these itty-bitty tracks, a mouse or a chipmunk. Dude is like, "Oh, hell no!"

Ice!

 The rain that came before the snow froze, and under every inch of snow at our house, there is ice, nasty, treacherous ice.  Mike and I have been working since Saturday to get rid of it, but it's thick and stubborn.  Fortunately, the temps will be in the 40s all week to help melt it.  Unfortunately, the temps will be in the 40s all week with no chances for precipitation of any kind for the foreseeable future.   All three of us, Mike, Dempsey, and me, are missing Mirabella terribly, so it was good to get away for a few days.  Dempsey loves Iron will Dog Lodge in Montrose, and he had such a great time, if the pictures they sent are any indication.  And any time I can get together with my sisters, it's going to be healing. Just a few pictures from a completely different environment: Me and sisters Claudia and Jan Ethel M's cactus garden decorated for Christmas. It is huge!

What a difference a week makes

Image
 Last week, I was fretting - as I do - about our lack of snow in October.  Now a week later, we have 15 inches of snow.  Yay us!  Here's how it played out: October 30 - 2.5; November 3, 4, 6 - 13 inches.  Nine of those latter inches fell Tuesday night into Wednesday. I am beyond thrllled to report that Marchelle and Aaron now have an operating septic system!!!  The landscaping will have to wait until spring. For those of you not here: Cattails on the lower pond Nifty freeze pattern on the upper pond.
