Subaru madness....




Well I have now successfully high-centered my Subaru while trying to go over a snow drift in the mountains. Well, I was actually not the one driving, but I did encourage the second attempt to get over the drift. We got lucky though and only spent 45 minutes trying to dig it out with whatever we had. We all had at least one glove (our friend Chris decided to not bring gloves sledding, which is what we were doing originally..go figure) and at least it wasn't snowing so the wind that was howling didn't make it blizzard conditions. Anyway, we all thanked God that we were actually able to move it-it wasn't looking so good for awhile and dark was approaching quickly. Not to mention that we had less than a quarter tank of gas and I just realized my tires are almost completely bald. So, sledding was fun....even sledding in Carhartts! :) We finished the evening off with a rousing game of Nerts! and some mint brownies for Ann and Liz's birthday. Can't get much better than that..... And we are very glad to have new friends and new company to hang out with. We now have like 4 friends :) HA! Welcome to Wyoming.....

That totally sucks.

Its 80 degrees here everyday. You can have my extra gloves... my hands get sweaty if I wear them.

You gonna be at Chris' wedding in Washington? I won't... but you can imagine what it would be like if I was.

Later
