We Found Winter!

We made it, and are comfortably relaxing on our couch bed with a fire warming our toes. It was a long and early day of travel, and WE FOUND WHERE WINTER WENT! WHISTLER! There are many feet of snow, the ski hills are in full swing, and we're so excited to finally be on our honeymoon. Today we had the most gorgeous drive from Vancouver, and tomorrow we will explore Whistler Village shops while we acclimate to 2,000+ feet. (I don't know how we'll do at the top of the mountain at 7,000+ feet, fingers crossed.) We had a delicious dinner of a wood fired pizza and are heading to bed soon. We're still on EST, which is good because I'm ready for bed at 8 (really 11) and will be able to get up at 6 (really 9). See, all I needed to do to be able to get up early is go three hours backwards. Works for me because we have a lot of early days ahead...

Venus and Jupiter

Get out you telescope! Do you know you can see FIVE planets this month? Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, And Saturn. You can see Saturn's rings and Jupiter's moons. On March 15th there will be a Venus-Jupiter conjunction, best in years. This means they will line up, side by side, like headlights in the night sky! http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/visible-planets-tonight-mars-jupiter-venus-saturn-mercury AND http://earthsky.org/tonight
With this nice weather, get out there and take a look!

Because of Melt...

I LOVE Brussels sprouts! (and know how to cook them so I do)

Where's all the snow?

We miss winter, we really do. Although, we take some comfort knowing we'll go where winter did, to Whistler! So far they have over 23 feet of snow! One thing I LOVE most is snow covered pine trees! Guess we picked the place for this!
Isn't this a cool picture? The top of the mountain looks like it has a big star on top! Just like one big Christmas Tree!

Plane Pictures

One last post of memories from Florida...On our way out, we got a shuttle view of KSC.
Good bye Florida!
I like to take cloud pictures from planes. It's a view you really don't see very often, and so pretty!
This was a gorgeous formation with the sun hitting it in just the right way.
Sunset from a plane. What a wonderful experience!
