Mondays Here's you sign day!




GOOD MORNING TO YOU ALL...... Its a cold and snowy morning for us here in Nevada, yes I said snow. This is too early for us to even think of snow and its not even Winter yet. I woke up this morning to about 4 inches of the white stuff. I have not ventured out in it yet, Its too warm for it to stay so I think by the day is gone it too will vanish as fast as it came in. WE are suppose to get more? I guess all things are possible. My sign today I found while driving around Rhyolite
one morning. The kids and hubby had a basketball game in Tonopah, Nevada its about 95 miles away up North so after I had to get up early and drop them off at school for the bus I did not go right home, I took the van and drove out to Rhyolite the ghost town. So here is what I saw.
The 1st picture is of the Train Depot and the other one was by some rocks that looked as if they were building at one time. Well I am way behind in getting my Christmas cards off so I need to get away from this computer and get them done. Stay warm and enjoy your week.

I was thinking about you this morning when the weather map showed Nevada covered in snow, it does happen every blue moon or so. lol Enjoy it, sure puts you in the Christmas mood and is always so pretty! I woke up to ice, not as much as they first said, thankfully but we have more coming in tomorrow. Winter is early here too and so odd? I love those buildings out there, sure wish someone would restore them. Stay warm, and venture out, noting beats a little walk in the snow! :)

We got your packages yesterday and I'm saving the unwrapped box unopened? I love the ornament, is that you or Danielle speaking on it? Very cute? You should be getting yours soon too! Our storm wasn't as bad as first predicted just very cold, so odd for this time of the year? Stay warm too! Love ya!!
