A couple of our horses, Nugget (a.k.a Trigger) and Quoti (the Paint, Doquoti), wanted to stop and pose for this photo opportunity to wish you all the best for this year in 2008.

We consider ourself one of those snow photographers and snapped this panorama of the Eastern view of our place here in southwest Colorado. We get to view this from our front yard. It's a fantastic sight in the Winter time. That building on the left, in the pasture is a well compressor on the Northend and the view swings around to the south end of our place at Stone Mountain Retreat.

Most of the San Juan Mountaineers and snow enthusiasts in Southwest Colorado have been enjoying the over 30 inches of snow that fell last weekend. Especially the snowmobiles, snowboarders, skiers, snow enhusiasts and snow photographers.

Vallecito had a power outage from last Saturday to Thursday of this week. The LaPlata Electric (LPEA) with help from neighboring counties has kept busy repairing downed powerlines, etc... from the wet, heavy snow playing havoc with the wires, poles and trees around this area.

Now... we seem to be going into this weekend the past few days with cool sunshine and foggy mornings that hide the view of the mountains until the sun burns it off to uncover the gorgeous view of the crisp blue sky contrasting against the snowy mountaintops on the horizon and spreading the pure white color of snow across everything in the valley below.

Simply Beautiful!
