Merry Christmas/Feliz Navidad !!

Today is a beautiful, snow-covered day in the San Luis Valley. The day began with snow falling until about noon or so, but now at 2PM the sun is mostly out with lots of blue sky. We took a walk in the falling snow and it was lovely. The orb of the sun was trying to break through the snow clouds, and finally succeeded.
The Canada geese are out and about, but the sandhill cranes that have been hanging out near the irrigation canal north of our house have left. The snow must have cleared them out.
Wolf Creek Ski Area's website says they've received 55" of snow in the past 7 days, and are due to receive a bunch more tonight. We head up there tomorrow to verify that snow report.....
