It has been sometime since my last post. The last entry was one of snow. Had I written anymore entries...you guessed it, they would be of snow! Maybe a little complaining...anyway, snow helps us appreciate what our foundation weather is, and that...is sun. In the Sierra Sun today, this was written by one of the reporters:
