Christmas Weekend

 

Some pictures from Christmas Weekend. It was a fairly low key Christmas Season for me this year. Stuey is in Latvia and Nora was with her mom.  But I do appreciate that we were blessed with a white Christmas.  Snow wise we have had a very good December.  So mostly I skied with the dogs.  I also went sledding at the golf course with Nora and the cousins, had Christmas dinner with uncle Dick, and Nora and I checked out the ice at Abercrombie. 

I'm glad we checked the ice because this morning prior to leaving on our trip I went skate skiing with the dogs in the dark under a full moon at the lake.  Over night we got 2 inches of new snow and it was fantastic flitting along on skis with the dogs chasing me in the moonlight.  One of the highlights of weekend and no photos!

And now Nora and I are leaving the Kodiak 'Winter Wonderland' to go skiing in Japan. It's always a bit tough to leave Kodiak when the sun is shining and there is new snow on the trees.  But Tokyo beckons!
