Columbine Lake

Winter is well under way here in Colorado. It looks like most of you have been hit pretty hard this year. We have had the most snow in the mountains that we have had in years, which makes for a great ski season. It also makes for some shoveling on the roof of our cabin.

Jeremiah is in the thick of his sophomore year of college at Champlain. This semester he gets a real feel for video game design in his Production Class. We celebrated his birthday when he came to visit during Thanksgiving. He is no longer a teenager.

Anna is an assistant stage manager for the spring play, so her responsibilities have increased in the theater department. The performances are at the end of this week, so she is really busy. She is already in the planning phase for the student only musical later this year, where she will be doing the lights and sound.

Sarah came out for a visit during the fall. She got to see the high school musical, Music Man and we drove up into Rocky Mountain NP. It was really cold up there and we had to eat our picnic in the car.

Emily and I finished our marathon kitchen remodel and are very pleased with the results. We are still waiting for a couple of chairs for a small sitting area, which should be in next week. We are getting as much skiing in as possible. In my spare time I am in the process of building a dinning table out of beetle kill pine and baking bread.
