Love the mountains, the snow, the feel, the cool air, the crunch of snow under you boot... tons of family and friends, food, beverages and GAMES...
Top game up here is RISK (not electronic that is). Shot one is Yellow Ahead (Jack),
18 minutes later Blue is Ahead (Phil) - the other 3 were killed, kicked out of the world...
then a walk outside to clear the mind.... the game is on pause and Jack is a BIT tired...
I am just minus un-glove - but in the background is the Fat Tuesday Mug from Vegas, how did it get there...
But look at the day time
and then the early evening... amazing. Makes you appreciate the small things in life.
And at the end of the day, the year, of your being... the little things do matter...
We helped 2 young gals stuck at the gas station on the pass (they just bought chains, no clue how to put them on and didnt have extra money to pay the attendant to do it for them), so, we did it for them, amazing no one asked them, or helped or the attendant really wanted to charge for it... where is Santa and the Elves when needed? They were stuck, visibly upset, even crying on the phone to whomever wanted them closer to home in the dark, while it was snowing on the day of Christmas. Hope they are safe and sound, sitting on the couch with a hot buttered rum.
Merry Christmas
