Had a chance to go on a snowshoe with a group today but decided not to. Several reasons: Cañada Bonita Trail not really officially open yet, ski area and parking lot very crowded during LANL's mandatory Christmas week shut-down, afraid of getting stuck in parking lot if forced to park in unpaved lots. I could probably think of more but three's enough!
Instead, this morning spouse, grandson and I headed to White Rock. Spouse and grandson walked from library to thrift shop and back while I walked on path along NM4 to Gate 11 and back. Then, home to lunch. Spouse took grandson to Adventures of Tin Tin whilst I dispatched two loads of laundry.
Tomorrow, spouse goes to investment club while I jog on a dirt road. Then we pick up grandson to take him out to eat.
Friday, I have a small, short volunteer job in the morning so I won't be able to go on the Friday walk but spouse will. Grandson has declined accompanying us. Spouse will eat out at one of the Indian casinos with the group.
On New Year's Eve, grandson sleeps over. He will definitely enliven our usual extremely low key (boring) New Year's Eve "celebration"!
Sunday we try to clean up this pig sty for spouse's New Year's Day Gator-OSU bowl party. The party is definitely not my idea but the house could use cleaning!
Next week when spouse goes back to work, it will seem strangely quiet here but I'm looking forward to it!
Beautifully warm today! Love it! Not sure, though, how much snow will be left next week for me to snowshoe on!
