~Snow and Staycation~

Well, we were supposed to drive over to Eagle Crest today with my family (Donny was driving over Thursday) but after the 3 hours it took us to get to Detroit, we asked how the pass was and were told we couldn't get there!  Ugh...  There had been an avalanche and it wasn't going to get cleared that day.  Well, our little vacation got cancelled (at least the Eagle Crest part) and we drove home, trying to think of a backup plan.  We decided to have a staycation.  We had already taken time off work, and we wanted to relax a bit.  We turned off our cell phones and made a point to not check our email or facebook.  We sat at home and read books, played games, went on walks, watched movies, etc...  It was really nice actually.  And it never stopped snowing the whole day.  There was only 3 or so inches on the ground by the morning though and it melted pretty fast.  By noon on Thursday it was sunny, blue skies and about 65 degrees!  The roads were dry and only the snowmen remained in the green yards of our neighbors homes to remind us of the snow!  It was so strange!!!!
