Website was down then we had three days without internet service due to ice build up on the repeater station on top of the mountain. Three attempts to get there by the tech guys. First time he tried to walk up there and got through waist deep snow halfway up and had to turn back. Second try was similar, but farther using an old snowmobile. They had to buy a new snowmobile to get to the top. We’ll be (we hope) living just “down the road” although our road won’t get us to the mountain. I think it would be two hour drive to get to the mountaintop from here because you have to go east then north and back west and south to get there. Two lonely caches in that area (the only two placed in the vicinity).
Got a PS4 for the family for Christmas, so I’ve been Minecrafting. Mining sure is soothing.
We had five days of getting 4+ fluffy inches of snow overnight. The stuff melts and compacts during the day, evaporates as steam and then returns as snow that night. We’ve had the town plow go through once in two weeks, naturally, as I was shoveling snow out of the driveway to get into our shed to return the Christmas bins. The highway out of Bonanza wasn’t plowed. They just let the trucks compact the snow and then it melts away. No wonder everyone uses snow tires out here, or chains.
Haven’t found a cache since I got stuck behind that truck. I can’t find a single winter friendly placement that doesn’t involve hiking along a trail to get to it. We’ve had a foot of snow since I found the last caches, most of the ones I found that day would be buried now.
People tell us the snow goes away in January/February, so I may have a month-long slump. No chance to create caches either because I had to take down our screen house I was using as a painting station.
First bird of this year for us will be a dark-eyed junco. There is a flock that finally discovered the bird feeder I put out in the summer.
Still haven’t seen Star Wars.
Off to town we go.

My wife worries about safety. She will probably want them replaced, not on our dime. The house is overpriced, so we need to see where the appraisal comes in and how the sellers handle a potential decrease in price because the VA doesn’t overpay for homes.
Need to talk to our realtor about the inspection before the appraisal happens. Then we see.

Got the inspection report on the house. No GFCI at all.

Don’t think that last picture will work on Drive.
Heading to town to drop off paperwork for loan and some shopping. Another winter storm warning today, so we’re going to try to beat the weather.

Glad this one worked out! The two before it were off kilter. As was the one after it, unfortunately.

I hate when the puzzle picture wind up sideways or upside down after you create the puzzle.

Team Dennis says he can get me a copy of the Hoopla files. Now, to get back to those Ranger Bot ones before heading to town.

Ranger Bot has the most unusual puzzles! One of these days I will solve one of them too.

Speaking of winning things, you think I could “win” a copy of the handout from the Hoopla event?
