!! Halloween 2010 !!






!! Snow !!

Grangeville, population 3200, is too small to have its own TV station. Nearby Lewiston has one station, but Dish doesn't pick it up so the closest TV news station for us is Spokane, 3 northwest. Watching weather reports on the news is rather comical, since they don't even show our area on their map!

The first snowfall here was November 10, about 2 inches!



















The next week we had a couple of snowfalls and ended up with over a foot of snow. The girls loved it! Everyone says this is not "normal", but I don't know if I believe it. Along with the snow came below zero temperatures for several days.






































The snow is beautiful, but it makes getting where you want to go a bit challenging. Many people we know stayed here for Thanksgiving rather than traveling to Boise...the roads were just not safe enough. We did make it to Lewiston on Black Friday to pick up our car...but that's a whole other post!



















Let it snow!

Stories from Idaho

We have lived here for six weeks now and I have yet to write one blog post. Facebook updates, yes. But I want to be able to tell all the stories. No more perfectionism, trying to start at the beginning. Just going to jump in and start telling stories.
