Happy New Year

I want to wish everyone a happy and healthy* new year. I spent the last day of the year skiing the "Pow-Pow" as Annie calls it. I was rough, hard on the legs, but we hung in there. Elija didn't fair as well, but made the best of it. It was then back to Annie's for a spirited game of "Original Six NHL monopoly" We had a low key celebration at Annie's and rang in the new year with some cribbage. *As for the healthy part, I took a mis-step getting up to the loft and rolled my ankle...the film's not back yet to see if it's just a bad sprain, or if the ankle is actually broken. I'll post the X-ray results when I get them....So, be careful out there!

Long Weekend

Spent the weekend painting the deck and getting rid of that awful orange color that has haunted me since I applied it a few years back. My camera's batteries have died so I haven't been able to get a picture on the blog---but it will be published next week, I promise.
