Did you know that dish soap can freeze? I woke up on Saturday morning and our cabin was so cold that I could see my breath. As I started making coffee I noticed that the dish soap had frozen, inside the cabin, right there on the counter - frozen. Brr...time to get a fire going!
I walked over to school that afternoon to take a shower and do some laundry. When I walked back outside I realized that it had started to SNOW!!!!! September 25th and the snow is already flying. It is going to be a long winter!
There were ravens flying all over picking at the trash barrels and it totally felt like a scene from Alfred Hitchcock's, "The Birds" as I walked out of the school building.There is something romantic and magical about watching snowflakes fall. As I walked home I stopped to take pictures along the way and to catch a few flakes on my tongue!
Snowing falling on the school....
Snow falling on the post office...
And the most beautiful of all, snow falling on the mountains!!!
I love this view from behind our cabin. We look out at the mountains and dream of skiing!
Jack is excited about the snow too. He rolled around in it so much that we don't have much snow left in our yard. He also found something, which he proudly presented to me...
And you thought it was bad when the cat finds a mouse and delivers it to your doorstep...Jack found this in the woods somewhere and carried it to the doorstep.
Ah, caribou hoof, thanks Jack!

okay..you totally have us beat when Hemminway left a mole by our front door for 6 months straight. The vet told us it was his way of honoring us!! Let's hope Jack does not continue bringing caribou parts to your door!! This picture says volumes about your surroundings..thanks for sharing..
I read the posts backwards. I saw the one of Gretchen and Sam outside not looking very bundled. It must not be too cold, I thought to myself. Then I realized how mistaken I was when I read about the dish soap freezing! Hang in there, guys!!
