Oh, how I miss snow. This is Andrea's in Lake Arrowhead. The driveway may not look like a lot of snow but that's because they shoveled constantly for a week to keep it from piling up. The bottom picture of Ian is more accurate for the actual depth of snow. I miss waking up and turning on the local channel to see that school is canceled. Back in the day (60's-70's) my Mom said people used to cross-country ski when the roads were closed. During the most epic storm my Dad had to shovel a tunnel to the street because the snow was over the doors. When it would snow this much we would jump off the second story deck into the snow and completely disappear. If it's gonna be cold... might as well have the novelty of snow, right? Kind of craving a real winter here.
Andrea just started her new job... ski instructor at Snow Valley. She makes her own hours and gets to ski for money. Snow Valley is where my parents were both ski instructors- that's how they met. They were on their way home from a ski school meeting and didn't feel like going home so they drove 4 hours to Vegas instead and got married! What the?
Andrea's cozy basement: they call it "The Lair" Check out the snow... it's almost as tall as Ian.

Did Andrea move to Lake Arrowhead? I thought she lived in Bakersfield.
Yep, she moved. Dave is still in Bakersfield and they still have their house. She has been staying with friends in their downstairs Apt. It has a kitchenette and they used to rent to the missionaries. She pretty much doesn't know what she is going to do and lives from one day to the next.
