Good friends from the Vernon ward,
Becky and Chris Skousen.
Becky is the Primary President and my visiting teacher, and Chris is the High Priest Group Leader.  

We got some snow last night and there is lots more scheduled for today.  
James thinks that the leak in the basement has slowed down enough that we can leave for a couple of days  He goes out to start the car and it won't start.  He opens the hood and fins that a rat has built a nest on the engine and assumes that he chewed a wire in two.  He is able to jump the car so the rat has been falsely accused.

He loads up the car, including two Christmas trees, a tub of lost and found items and my Oreck vacuum which needs to be fixed.  We leftg the house at 11:20.
I wanted to go through Payson but the megatron said you either needed to have chains or a four-wheel drive. 
  Tons of snow
Gorgeous
This picture was taken as we left Miami and were coming into Superior just before we got to the bridge.
I have never seen waterfalls here before!
Traveling was slow.  It took us five hours instead of our usual three and a half.  We stopped at Trina's house to say hi to her and the kids.  Then we headed to Goodwill on Pecos and Arizona Avenue to get rid of our old living room Christmas tree.  We then stopped at Stacy and Paul's to give them the tree they left at the cabin a few years back.  We visited for a few minutes and felt bad we didn't have a treat for Holly.  Next we went to Kim's and then Sheri's.  We had Taco Bell for dinner before finally arriving at Cathi and Terry's. The dogs were very happy to see us!  We stayed up and visited with them until about 10pm. 
Throwback Thursday
 I used to collect Hot Wheels and would have loved to
have this to display my cars.
The drugstore where I went almost everyday
after school for a baked ham sandwich and a cherry phosphate.
