Winter Wonderland…….

We arrived at Cherry Creek State Park on a sunny warm day…….We like this park and have stayed here many times while in Denver.     Despite the pouring cold rain the next day, we met for a Mother's Day breakfast at a favorite eatery.    Then, with the forecast in mind, we hibernated for the rest of the day.    Snow started in the afternoon and continued off and on, alternating with sleet.    It was still snowing this morning.  
  

 Probably 5 inches of heavy wet snow and 30 degrees greeted us when we headed out.


 There are many many deer up here and despite the snow, they were out and about.  


Tonight it is supposed to dip to 23 degrees…..We've had to search to find some of our cold weather clothes that we packed away, not thinking we would need it til the fall.    Later tomorrow, it will start the warm up and by Wednesday, it will be in the 70's.  

It looks like we will head to Montrose this weekend and the closing is currently planned for the 23rd.   That will give us time to look at the house and then order furniture and such.    Today, Jenna and I wandered thru IKEA.   Interesting stuff….not all of it appealing but their prices are certainly attractive.

  1. That white stuff sure looks pretty! But I'll take the 70s any day!

    Safe travels to Montrose...and happy closing!
