Welcome To November!

November is here...and today so is snow!!! November 5th marks the first accumulating snow of winter 2010-11 at our house. We obviously do not have much...but there is accumulated snow on the ground this morning. In fact, it is still snowing now that I can actually see outside. Pretty cool stuff. It looks like we are supposed to see in the range of half an inch today. Get our your sleds! ;) The sad part is I have ridden on more dirt than half an inch of snow before...on some of our late spring trips.

I had half a notion to sell my sled this year...I am having a really hard time getting rid of it though. First, it is the first new sled I have ever bought, and second, it does not have nearly enough miles on it for me to have gotten my enjoyment out of it yet. Possibly after this season I can start to consider it again...unless I get a slammin' deal. Who knows.

Anyway...that really about sums up this early morning post...I am still trying to wake up a bit. I will post a few pictures when the light changes outside...I cannot get a decent picture right now because it is just a little bit too dark...and I am NOT about to go stand outside in my comfy sleep clothes right now. ;)

One last quick note...this marks the first year in a LONG time that I will not have to get a fire going to keep warm! I walked downstairs and turned on the thermostat...how cool is that? *laugh* Anyone know of any good internet enabled thermostats that I could install here? Preferably one with iPhone/BB/Droid apps. :)

Good morning from SNOWY Northern Michigan!
