CHRISTMAS UPDATE

We had a great Christmas again this year.  It started out on Christmas Eve with a family get together at my brother Gary's place.  He and his wife Margee have hosted this for many years. We spent Christmas day skiing at our little resort  as we usually do.  The snow was great and we even got to ski a little powder in some trees.  It is fun showing up there and seeing all the people who ski from the Bitterroot and the other side of the mountain from the Salmon area.  We came back to our place and cleaned up, changed clothes and headed to Ike and Brenda's place for a big Christmas dinner.  Ike and Brenda's sons were there and Ike's mom.  Their son Rustin who is stationed up in Alaska showed up unannounced and that was a big surprise.  Plus neighbors and some more friends.  Great meal and we all had a good time. 


We had a pretty good little snow storm just before Christmas so we did have a white one.

Getting ready to open up gifts.


And the steal a gift exchange is always fun!






Connie about to head down into some trees and then back on to the nice groomed run.


We still need some more snow to cover up the stumps in the trees.

Carl and I went walking one morning and ran into wolf tracks.  Probably a sub adult male wondering through. You can see Zephs leg and footprint and then compare to the wolf.  


My camera case for a comparison.
