I was standing at the front window of the store a couple of days ago conversing with a customer. We both look up and commented on the beautiful sunset. So I quickly ran to the back and grabbed my camera.
We have had some nasty weather.....short snow storms that lead to icy roads. On the way home the other night there were 6 accidents. The worst was a lady and her two daughters in a ditch in the canyon. They got out safely and the car was not damaged to badly. As I turned to drive down the road, I spotted a lone figure in my headlights. I recognized our mayor, Chris, so I stopped. He was out for his evening walk. 12 degrees, dark and snowy and he is taking his evening walk. I thought that is why they made treadmills. Chris and I chatted for just a moment. As I started to drive off, he left me with this thought. "Marriage is a wonderful institution, at least for those who like to be institutionalized".
The good Lord left us with a wonderful Christmas gift last evening. For those who noticed, the planet Mars rose with the full moon. It was quite a sight. I snapped this picture. It does not even come close to the beauty that was experienced nor is the detail there to see Mars.....I guess you had to be there.
Milo and I pass on our warmest Christmas greetings.
