I spent the last two years working two jobs - for the most part - 7 days a week. I was able to work remotely some of the time and spend time with family that I wouldn't have been able to otherwise - but still had daily work duties to tend to - so never actually had a whole day off in two years.... why? what did I learn? most importantly - was it worth it?
Not worth it - not one bit! Here's to one job - more me & less work. Enough boring talk - let's get outside!
We had snow for the holidays - some of us had more than others - but several inches - enough to create chaos in a town with a poor snow management strategy & drivers with little to no experience driving in the snow & ice. I grew up with snow my whole life & spent a lot of time driving in it. I'm not too worried about my abilities - it is everyone else that worries me. Anyway - we headed to the mountains to do a little "snow wheelin".
I enjoy the beauty of the landscape covered in snow & the excitement of it all - not so excited when we start climbing in altitude & one side of the road drops off hundreds of feet. Nonetheless - we reached a great viewpoint & we all got out to enjoy the view. We determined we should go ahead and head back down to stay safely on the road.
We played a bit longer & adventured down some more Forest Service Roads that were less altitude climbers. All in all - we had a great day - arriving home just at dark.
Please enjoy the pics below & I hope your first day of the new year was as fun as ours!
Wow! Breathtaking view on the 4th photo in of the Gallery! I grew up where the winters were snowy and cold, and missing the snowy part of it here in North Carolina. Where is the place you wrote about?
While difficult, hiking in the winter/snowy conditions became one of our favorite things to do last year! It's always so quiet and peaceful outdoors with snow on the ground.
