Hey all. Matt and I have had a pretty good winter so far. We've mostly just hung out and rearranged our house. A month or two ago we bought some new furniture and got rid of some of the hand-me-down furniture I've had for years. So our house matches a little better now. We've also gone snow-shoeing a couple times. So far we've always gone to North Fork, in the Ogden Valley, behind Ben Lomond. They have a county (I think?) park up there with really great trails groomed for skiing and snow shoeing. It's always good to get up there out of the inversion and into the forests.
Besides that, we've taken the scooter out for a ride (40 degrees might seem warm in winter, but when you get going fast with the wind in your face, 40 degrees feels arctic!); we've been looking for a go-to pizza place after our favorite one closed. We might have found a winner in Marco's, which is a carry-out chain and has a store near us. It's really good. We've started making plans for our spring/summer garden (it'll be good this year, but we can't figure out where to grow raspberries). Like I said, a pretty good winter so far.
