I'm dreaming of a white 4th of July...

Well, it could happen. It did last night. The mountains were white this morning and here is tonight's forecast:

Tonight
Breezy. Mostly cloudy with scattered rain showers and snow showers in the evening...then partly cloudy with isolated rain showers and snow showers after midnight. Lows 35 to 38. West winds 15 to 20 mph. Chance of precipitation 30 percent.


Yep. For a Weather Channel FREAK like me, this is the PERFECT part of the world to be living in. So far, never a dull moment!

News...
...Tomorrow morning is the home inspection. I'm excited to see the house again and, of course, we are hoping the inspector doesn't find anything major. The kids are anxious to check out the closet under the basement stairs for their gold-mining operation. :O)

...Todd's in car hunt mode. The Toyota Corolla has served us well for about 12 (or is it 13?) years but is rapidly declining and our constantly elongating children are struggling for leg room. Needless to say, gas prices are discouraging us from driving the Expedition as much. Todd's current favorite for a car is the Toyota Avalon. We test drove a 2004 last night - wow!!

...Things are going great for Todd at work. He's enjoying the challenges and census numbers are up - always a good thing from an administration standpoint. He is the "Administrator On Call" all this week so our exploring this weekend will be limited to what is close to Casper.

Hope you have a good day!

Kiss the Corolla goodbye for us too :( But I do agree- the Avalon is pretty nice! Good news about Todd's job! And just so you know we really miss you guys!

Weather in central TX-mid 90's for the past 3 weeks and sunny with no end in sight. We'd be a weather channel bore!

MN weather is MN weather, full of surprises....60 degrees and rain, rain, rain with no end in site....it's starting to feel like Washington. I'm fessing up, the Toyota Avalon is the only car I have ever been jealous of. Donna, at work, owned a white one with gold trim in the back. I loved it, she traded it for a truck and put me into shock!
