Building the pinewood derby car

I hope the little guy build his pinewood derby car. We have made good progress, but there's a lot more to go. He wanted to make a camping scene. It's going to be on the edge of a body of water. 🙂

It is only a dusting, but I will take it. :-)

Well, seems we're kicking the new year off with a wintry high note. 🙂 Actually, we got barely more than a dustin, but it was still fun to see. We got skunked on Christmas this year, but hopefully we can catch up a bit on the snowflakes. 🙂

The last light of 2019

Well, this is ite last sunset for the year that was 2019. Seems to me it was a pretty good year. It had his ups and downs, but overall I don't remember anything really bad happening. So that must mean it was pretty good! 🙂

More shaky stuff

We have had a rash of earthquakes over the last couple of months. We've had 1 or 5 in the last couple days that we could actually feel, including one that was a magnitude 3. No damage or anything, but still pretty fun and exciting!

Festival of lights, 2019
