A Year in Westcliffe

This week is a year since we've been living in Westcliffe - it was snowing when we arrived and it's snowing now. Big, wet flakes - about 5" on the ground now, measured by the snow on the railing and on the bird feeder.

Sept and Oct saw the invasion of the mice and the packrats - not in the house, but big time in the trailer. They nested in drawers, peed on everything in sight, and chewed all kinds of things. Ridding the trailer of them has been taking a while, but I guess we'll know not to just leave the rv unexamined for such a long time next yr.

Haven't had much trouble driving to work in Pueblo so far.
