Spring was (Almost) Here.

The past week has been absolutely beautiful! These are pictures taken last night around 6:15 pm .. yes, PM!!! The sun was setting on the way to my Bible Study and the mountains were beautiful. Unfortunately, none of these pictures do these mountains justice; the sun had turned the mountains pink and purple, so cool!

I have worn sunglasses for the last week, loved the warmth and sun, and so LOVED having a black, not white, driveway again. BUT THEN .... I woke up this morning, let Bella out and realized it. was. snowing. UGH. Now that I have reshoveled the driveway, the snow is quite nice. New snow always freshens things up and makes the winter pretty again. Although I set myself up for a little disappointment by thinking Spring was right around the corner, I enjoyed the week of warmth and sun!

Outside of my neighborhood.

On "the Glenn," the only highway anywhere close to us. This one road is the only way to connect hundreds miles of Alaska.
Gearing up to shovel.
Although you can't really tell, there are about 6 or 7" of snow. You can kind of see with the boot print outside of the garage.

I'm so w/ you on wanting to see NO MORE SNOW! We had a dusting yesterday morning. While it was pretty coming down it meant that it was COLD outside! I'm ready for spring. And it's very windy here today.
