Winter is Waning

After a few months of amazing snow at the cabin, we have had a few warmer days of rain. The sledding hill that looked like this earlier in February....

 Now looks like this. The seasonal creek behind the cabin swelled up with rainwater and snow melt last weekend. The water was backing up in our yard while it waited for patiently melt away the snow dams in its path. No damage or anything, we just leave this part of yard natural, but it was pretty impressive to witness. The brown is from all of the rich soil and leaves that is being carried along with the water.

 The cabin can still be fun on a rainy day - as long as home made cookies are part of the afternoon! Lucky for me, I have two great helpers (Edison was skiing with dad).
