Yes, that's my plan as soon as my foot is healed enough. Walking is a chore right now.

that was from when I worked out there.

and on the weather front we're due for 6-8 inches of snow tomorrow.

Oh! So you heard the haters. F them. I met one woman when I was riding my ElliptiGO and she was on her bike. She actually gave me the sign of the cross with her fingers when I told her I was from California. Another guy told me, "Oh you're the reason Colorado's being ruined." So rude! If I was black they "probably" wouldn't say that but hating Californians is accepted.

Oh, and if you get the delaudin (?) out of your system and don't fall down, please share your Christmas day snow photos here. I will. I'm going to my son's with my kids and their loves, , my ex and his significant other and my daughter in law's father and his wife. I'm expecting a great time, seriously.

Patty I was only teasing, Colorado was OK but I like my oxygen and rain.

as I get ready to go clear the snow I think Edmund Hillary would have cried tears of joy for my clothing.
Outerwear layers of goretex in the coat, pants and boots and polartec jacket for insulting layer.
and this is 'normal" to go clear snow for 45 minutes before the sun goes done.

Too cold for snow here. Temps in the low teens now and going down. Not supposed to get above 20° for the next 10 days.

Lovely Loveland, Colorado. Yesterday, 12-29-2017, it got up to about 63. I rode my ElliptiGO for the first time in over two months since my broken foot is healed enough. This morning I woke up to 11 degrees and light snow. I love the erratic changes here. Back at my place in California the highs are in the seventies and the lows are in the 50s all week. Boring.

Glad you got out there, Patricia. Weather is the same here. COLD!! High of around 20, at most today. I went to the Y, coffee/social hour with the ladies and now we are in for the rest of the day. We'll see what tomorrow brings. I've got "stuff" to do around the house, so some at home time is OK.

We may get a little snow tonight. IF things looks pretty tomorrow, maybe I'll venture out a bit with the camera.
