I have to say - I really, really feel for the people getting hit with the cold and snow in the east and south. I can't whine, because you all have it worse than us, even though we are getting hit worse than we have in a few years. Don't throw things at your computer but today it is 46*, sunny, and - SNOWING - and last night we made the news because we had 81 mph winds! It broke my favorite icicle.
This is what winds like that do for us; this is a 3 ft. drift at the front door. We have a 6 ft. drift at the side door but I am not going there for pictures. So Bill and I dug out the shovels and started in. We also called the neighbor who plows for us because it is hard for guests to park when there is 2 ft. of snow in the parking lot.
This is the pile he left us; must be time to call the grandkids for sledding. Actually, that's only one of the piles he left us.
This was the pile Bill and I made. See my icicle hanging in front. It had a good start on growing into the snow pile. It's not there any more; the wind blew it down but at least we have a walkway of sorts, into the lodge - which the wind keeps blowing shut on us.
Since this was Valentine's Day weekend, we advertised a special offer of wine, chocolate covered strawberries, fresh flowers and chocolates in the rooms.
Thought I'd show you a couple of the room pictures. We had fun with it. I hope our guests did, too.
Happy Valentine's Day weekend to everyone.
Our guests are all out snow shoeing.

A Quick Change
I've been messing about in Mom and Bill's blog again. This time to add something kind of cool. (Bill did the hard work, I just added the page and linked them together.)
For those of you who want to come visit the lodge, we now have a "Lodge Specials" page that you can get to by clicking the page link in the sidebar. Coming up is their annual "Crafters' Retreat". Click on over and check it out.
