Oh the weather outside is frightful...

...This was the song I was singing this week because of the weather we had! The calm before the storm on Tuesday was a really cool inversion of weather. I live up on a mesa so when I left my house, it was sunny and lovely out. As I was driving to work, there was a huge cloud hanging low to the town and dense fog and snow as I was driving through the cloud. It is like when you are on an airplane and you are traveling in the blue sky while looking down at the clouds.

The winter weather literally took Montrose by storm. Tuesday night into Wednesday the wind was so blowing so hard that I finally understood what Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz felt like!

Wednesday morning my drive into work took 2 hours. Montrose got hit really hard and the roads weren't really plowed. Once I got into Delta, it was a smoother drive. People keep telling me that this was an anomaly and Montrose gets less snow than Denver. Let's hope so...

The weekend has proven to be very festive and fun thus far. Friday night I saw the neighbor High Schooler perform in a 1950's musical "A Taffeta Christmas." I love high school musicals and plays, the kids try so hard and I enjoy watching teens doing things they love to do. Last night I had dinner with Robin and we watched the last part of the town Parade of Lights. We then moseyed over to a Bed and Breakfast owned by a gal who is the person you want to know in Montrose. She had musicians playing  and so we sat there and had a good time. I got on her email list for the Women who Wine events, another thing that is a must-do in Montrose. Today I am heading over to Delta to hear a Christmas concert. Every year my family goes to something Christmasy. Tonight they are seeing a concert in Denver, so I thought I would see my own in Delta! Should be Merry.
