Snowy Flying Day

It was snowing pretty hard at the house this morning, coating our deck furniture in a fluffy layer of white. We've been struggling with the decision of whether or not to put the protective all-weather storage covers on the new furniture for the Winter, but our inclement weather is generally so short-lived, that it seems like it'll be more trouble than it's worth. So we got to see how our "water-resistant" cushions handle the snow. As it turns out, very well, thank you.

Coincidentally, after being away from airplanes all year, I went flying with JB in his Comanche today, as he got in his six IFR approaches while buzzing around Fort Collins airport. Once we got away from the snow at our house, it was sunny and awesome up in the Northern territories where we were flying.

We stopped at Pita Pit in Boulder for lunch, for a tidy (!) and tasty Gyro sandwich, then picked up some hot and sour soup for K at Yen King on the way home. I got home and met up with Jen, a person K is considering for a part time home companion type of role. Our neighbors Ken and Freddie were also there, and my hat's off to them - they did an awesome job of preparing for the interview, with a 3 page handout describing ways to help K stay off her feet.
