Goodbye Rudolph, Santa and Jingle Bells! Two storms, including one on Christmas Day, created idyllic vistas of snow covered mountains, pines and fields. For some it was the fulfilment of a dream of a picture perfect White Christmas, for others, a winter nightmare with dangerous icy roads, travel delays, snowed-in cars and blocked driveways. Our own Christmas featured 17 family members and friends for dinner, wood-burning stoves and sledding in our field when the snow finally ceased in the late afternoon.
The Christmas lights were especially pretty this year: Stores provided the village with colorful sparkle set off by abundant snow. There are still pretty light displays on Chinook Trail on either side of the road. A special thanks to the family of the late David Anthony, who continue his tradition of illuminating his front yard with jolly, festive characters, a cheerful sight on a dark night.
