Woke this morning and saw a snowflake on the forecast for this coming Thursday... WOW!!! I never knew so many emotions could be tied to the weather app. It's very exciting to be living in a land of true seasons now, but of course we are in a hurry to get our living conditions up to the challenge of surviving a winter. Today was definitely one of the coldest we have had yet, but spending so much time outside we seem to be well adapted, and just seem to build bigger and better fires!.jpeg)
Cal and Dottie joined us for the weekend. It's so nice having them, and although we are so busy, it's a definite comfort. Enjoyed good times around the campfire, and the kids love running down to their trailer in the mornings. Today we trailed the quads up Sinlahekin Valley again. The kids were bundled... wrapped... squished... and then some! It was a chilly ride, but oh so gorgeous and fun to have our quad family all in a row. We made it up to the middle of no where and made a big fire right in the middle of the "road." Kendyl fell asleep in-between Cal and Dottie on both the way up and back down. Bear started nodding off behind me as well and I had to rouse him so he wouldn't fly off on a corner... I've tried to take pictures of the land we ride around in, but it really doesn't do the landscape justice. It's a combination of typical Eastern Washington awesomeness.... and the alps. You come around some corners and it just opens up before you. Although the colors are fading as winter nears, the expansiveness is breathtaking. 
Back at home the guys got to work hanging lights in our shop. It was so weird to see light. We have been so used to the darkness after sunset, the shop looks so foreign down there now. The trailer is getting quite small though, and I'm day dreaming of a washer/dryer, bathroom, and a few more square feet.
