Monday, November 25: Drove home across Washington state. Parts of the drive were quite foggy, like this stretch where I couldn’t see the highway from the rest area I stopped at. (Contrast with the view when Mr. Karen and I stopped there back in October.)

 

Tuesday, November 26: This snowperson was hanging out in the loading dock when I went to get the mail.

 
Wednesday, November 27: First ski day of the season. Bit of ice fog to deal with but good to be out there this early.

 
Thursday, November 28: Celebrated Thanksgiving by going to one of the fancy restaurants in the village for a prix fix Harvest Dinner. The cushions next to the fireplace there made me think of pancakes. I did make a big pan of stuffing and a huckleberry pie for us to snack on at home, since those are my favorite parts of any holiday meal.

 
Friday, November 29: Time to re-blue my hair, but first a bare faced selfie showing the before.

 
Saturday, November 30: Current state of the mountain; this is way more snow than we had this time last year. (Oh, and my hair turned out like this.)

 
Sunday, December 1: Enjoyed this super clear day when I could see the Cabinet mountains across the way.
