We dropped Gary off at Company last night and just received the call that he got to their training destination around noon. The Army has everyone validate by hosting a mock war at various training centers. He'll be gone for about a month, no idea how I'm going to open tough jars all by myself! Every time I handed one to him he would say, "I'm deployed, what are you going to do?" I told him, "Take it to Brian next door!"
We got some snow over the weekend, nearly six inches out here. The snowfall is wildly variable across Colorado Springs, even across post. A lady came to pick up a freecycle item on Sunday and said that up in the northern part where she lives they didn't get very much at all. The snow melts very quickly here so you have to act fast if you want to enjoy it. I strapped on my cross country skis that night and did about a mile and a half to two miles, not entirely sure. On Monday the snow was still around so Mia and I had breakfast and got ready for a little bit of snowshoeing. I wasn't sure the snow would be deep enough, but along the highway I was very glad I had them. I pulled Mia in the pulk behind me, letting her out when we were about half done with a four mile loop. She teetered through the snow for a little while before I had to put her back in when the path came close to the road. My body is still screaming at me!

Hello old friends!
It's a Mia in a pulk!
Look Ma, no stability!

I think she has lived in this basket since Friday
Yes, we're still confused.
"Oh no! I crash BOOM! WRONG WAY! Daddy help!"
