ringing it in

Happy New Year!  Today is a day... much like yesterday actually.

But we went on a little New Year's Eve mountain adventure and succeeded in (nearly) freezing our butts off at midnight.  Wouldn't feel like new years without that component!




Meego and I broke off from the pack for 'Midnight Mile 2016', as the others were dressed more for arctic exploration rather than even slow running.  Luckily, he had a headlight because this was unfamiliar territory, and we didn't want to end up on the news as "Frozen Guests Found..."

The exertion kept us warm in the subzero cold at about 8,000 feet but eventually we slowed so as not to absolutely bite it on the ice.  And it was very pretty out, so photo ops






All managed to make it back to the cabin with appendages still attached.  No cannibalism was necessary.






Thanks for visiting in 2015.  Welcome to 2016.  Bring on spring!

Happy New Year! I was expecting the Midnight Mile out of you all, but not the cabin. How fun is that!?

Planning even a short trip is iffy this time of year, so it's nice to have pulled one off!

A mountain adventure sounds like a great way to end/start the year! Congratulations on surviving the cold and yet another midnight mile. Happy New Year!

So glad you didn't have to resort to cannibalization. Love the year in review :) I'd walk through a humid room for you. Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! Wow, that's quite the way to end your evening. I prefer the Midnight Nodding Off In Front of the TV.
