We woke up to bright sunlight and blue skies. THere was a good amoutn of snow around and the everythign had a sheen of ice. Diane and I tookl a mornign walk to see the ice, snow and sun

 

Aroudn noon we all got together a hike in the beutiful snowy sun

 

max placed a samstone in this cool ring of sticks we found

 

Then back to the house to start cookign for tomorrow

 

Around 6 we piled in one of the cars and headed down town for the Ferolito walk

Its when canyon road is lined with ferolito.. small paper bags lit with candles..and all the galleries are open. Families are all out , dressed up in lights and checking out the art. Its very fun !

 

 

I had on my blinking hat and with my white beard.. many, many kids thought I was santa.. I love that !

We all went home, ate a light meal.. then Diane and Becky started making filling for the pierogies .. while I fell asleep on the sofa 🙂

 

Time to get to bed so santa can come 🙂
