Sunday Hike in the Snow

Church was canceled today due to "inclement" weather. Reno is funny with snow. They cancel everything when it snows. You would think that this isn't a four-season place for how they react to snow. But anyway, I usually like when things get canceled. I like a little hiccup to my routine.

We lounged around the house most of the day, but by evening Shay was done and urged us to get out. We decided to go for a snowy stroll up Keystone Canyon.

There wasn't a creek here before. I guess we have had quite a bit of moisture this year! Our local ski hill is at the top of the charts for the most snowfall this season. Too bad we didn't get season ski passes this year.

This was before the current storm. Mt. Rose is nearing 700". We'll see if they get it!

Anyway, as we hiked Shay reminded us of the pioneers walking across the plains to the west. I'm happy I live today when we have down coats and heated vehicles to go back to. It's nice to be reminded of our blessings!
