Too bad we aren't there now. Here's some pics my SIL took from her back yard yesterday (in Oakhurst).

OMG Lisa, those are beautiful! The cat, is he looking in the window, 'Hey, quit with the picture taking...let me IN!!'

I've always been curious, and, forgive me if you answered me before {if I don't go right away it isn't in my mind}, does your SIL/Bro live in the area heading in towards the Tenaya Lodge or out more towards that casino? Or more right in the town area?

I always wonder what it would be like to live there. Try to figure out what would be a good job there...when that time comes.....

God, that snow is beautiful.

Thank you!

They live about half way out the road to Bass Lake (the road that goes from the Talking Bear).

Ah, I see. What a great place!!! I forget, as the past few times we haven't gone out there, but is this the road that you turn on to go to Fresno Flats? I could be wrong. I am imagining that talking bear. :0) On the corner by the white building?

I swear, there is so much we have yet to see out there. The area you guys are staying at, I would never have imagined.

I don't ski but I love to see the photos of the old ski lodge and fun they had.

Ooo!! I don't think I've ever asked anyone here, but, has anyone here ever been to the Glacier Point Lodge? Isn't there any more but it wasn't too long ago that it was. I love the old history.

Tease !

Tell your SIL that we're jealous.

Oh, and the cat's saying "Sure, it's warm in there"

At least we're used to driving in snow, and have four wheel drive. I'm not thrilled at the prospect of vacationing in the white stuff, but it will be great to see everyone!

Wendybeth...Wendybeth !!!, it'll be like this:

The snow will finish at a radius of 102.73 yards from the exact center of the cabin. Within that distance, small crocus flowers will be smiling above a carpet of new spring grass. These are the ones you and others will harvest for the saffron. Don't worry, I'll be nearby to supervise.

You'll need to shoo the deer and bear away, and be careful not to stand in their poop. There'll be bunnies, too. Tori will want one, but "no, no Tori...mustn't take park animals home...and no you can't have the bunny either".

Beyond this radius, the soft snow will arc up into an 8" curve following a lazily described edge, as it recedes into a forest of cedar-birch-maple-sequoia-like trees, a slight bluish hue to the light powder.

It is here that [dance]Stoat dances[/dance].

...and no one need mind if this doesn't reflect reality - how could I fail to see what I choose to see with such great friends for company? And if that doesn't work, there's always the Duty Free in my hip-flask.

Soon, Dear Wendybeth, soon.

Love and hugs,

The Stoat XXX.

And this, dearest Stoat, is why I love you. :0)
