Well it's been colder than last year



Well this year has already been much different than last year, we've gotten more snow than all last year and it's been colder longer than it was all last year. The dam has almost frozen over this year a couple of times and we have been in the 8-12 degree nights for about 2 weeks and yet last year only had about 4 days that were this cold and the days don't seem to warm up much until a couple of days ago when it hit 40 and 36 while in Leavenworth was in the 20's, they are much lower almost 1600' lower than here but it's been warmer here than there. Crazy weather but then it is so beautiful, tonight the moon is almost full illuminating the mountains and with all the snow covered areas it just seems to light it up more. It looks so pure and beautiful and the clear skies will allow it to cool even more. the mountains are all standing at attention in all their glory and majesty. The creeks are even beginning to freeze in areas that never froze last year, ice dams are beginning to form which in turn makes nice pools, giving it a totally new look.
