This weekend is Playoff Weekend for pro football. None of the teams we would routinely root for has made it this far. I watch some of the games and generally root for the underdogs but really don’t have a lot invested in the outcomes. It will be interesting to see who makes it to the Super Bowl this year.
There wasn’t much going on at the home front this past week. Some snow fell, enough for me to plow with the garden tractor, but it has since warmed up and melted all but the most stubborn patches of snow and ice where the sun hits. Shady areas are still white. There are 10% – 30% chances of flurries this upcoming week but accumulations will be (hopefully) minor. The high country has received more precipitation, welcome by skiers and good for spring water, but down here we are enjoying typically mild temperatures for this time of year — daytime highs in the low to mid 30 degree range and nights in the high teens to low twenties.
I worked on my web site and added a “Chipper” gallery with links to a couple videos. During these winter days I will be looking at updating other galleries and possibly adding a few more video clips from my library. For example, I added a link to the “Howling Dogs” clip on the Dogs page. Pam laughs at these changes, noting that most folks reading these posts are not that interested in my chipper, but – hey – it keeps me busy when I can’t get outside much.
Otherwise life is pretty routine. Pam continues to view potential retirement homes online and I have started a few projects at work. Weekends have a few minor activities – I moved the vehicles out of the garage and swept / shop-vacuumed the place – and took a 42 mile ATV ride out on Wild Horse Mesa to play in the snow for a bit. Now and then I wash the car at a U-Spray place. This is typical winter weekend stuff. Not real exciting…
That’s it for now. Thanks for looking in!

Same-o, same-o. About a minute more daylight every day. Stay warm.
Happy Trails.
