Winter wonderland

Monday, December 18, 2017

Brrr!  When I got out of bed this morning, it seemed awfully cold even indoors with the heat on.

I padded down the hall to the kitchen in my slippers and warm fleece clothing.

I opened the kitchen blinds and found out why it felt so cold … snow!

Oh, I do love snow!  Of course, I’m retired and don’t have to go anywhere.  I remember fretting and fuming about snow when I had to drive in snow to get to work.  But now it’s just awfully pretty.  🙂

As you can see, we didn’t have very much snow really, but it was enough to make the world magical for a couple of days.

Snow on the Azalea hedge.

Why is there snow on my head?

It’s a good time of year to be indoors in a “sticks and bricks” house!

I spent much of this winter studying up on items for the new Escape trailer … sinks, faucets, flooring, upholstery, counter top material … and then ordering what I want for my trailer.  I also made decisions about all of the options that ETI offers that I don’t have to purchase separately.

There were so many details!  I hope I didn’t get mixed up and ask them to build it upside down!  🙂

The people at Escape Trailer helped with lots of information and input.  Their communication has been excellent.  In addition, there is an online owner’s forum where I could see photos and descriptions of what other owners had done with their trailers.  There are lots of different ideas out there … each person fitting out their trailer just exactly the way they want it.  The closer the completion date gets for my trailer, the more excited I get.  🙂  June is coming soon!

Bull-oney on this!  I thought this was summer in Mexico!
