This first snow melted the next day, but we have had another since then. I was downtown yesterday and these huge flakes where falling . . . I didn't have much to do yesterday so I spend a little time window shopping and enjoying the snow. There is just something about snow and Christmas that makes me all giddy inside, and "it's a wonderful life"-y.

The fireplace is 29 feet high and I picked out every single rock that went into it. It goes into the hall and around the corner into the den where there is a second fireplace.Upstairs in the master bedroom is a adobe type fireplace with rocks surrounding the opening. I pack packed all of those rocks off of Kettle Falls Mountain. That was 23 years ago. I love fireplaces and so did my father. I really was crazy 23 years ago. It took three trips up and down that mtn.
