On the Hunt 12-21

Happy Winter Solstice! I love this wintry day because in spite of the winter season being officially upon us, it means that the days start getting longer again.

It clouded up a bit here today, a storm is heading this direction by Wednesday they say.

Today we looked at five different properties and none made our short list...they are in the discard pile, but by starting the process we start to figure out what may or may not be important and we are constantly adjusting that and refining what we want. It will be mostly a winter home the first couple of years at least, which factors into what it is we need...so time will tell. The beauty of right now for us is we can take our time, we aren't HAVING to find a home, because we have a home right now that we are comfortable in, it just has wheels on it.

After we had dinner we drove up highway 82 today to check out High Rolls area and as we suspected the elevation there is too high, which means snow and too cold, but the drive through the canyons and up the mountain is really pretty...rocky ledges dotted with yuccas and cactus and the occasional juniper...stunning. The light was fading so no good pictures...
