Today the clouds are so low that we can't see the mountains. It's only going to get up to 39 or so today and Sheri's knee is bothering her a bit, so we decided to just relax. More on that later.

We are staying at a nice place called The Evergreens on Fall River Road.

Our cabin is a duplex. So far no one has been in the unit adjacent to ours.

We are used to a waterbed at home, so we put an airbed on top of the regular bed to give it that "at home" feeling. The downside is that you almost need a ladder to get in an out of bed.

There is a great hot tub outside which is great after a day of hiking.

We can see the Fall River from our balcony. This bridge goes across the river to some other units.

Looks like a great cabin! With all the snow coming down, I expect you are curled up in front of the fire right now enjoying a hot chocolate... hmmm, wonderful yup.gif

I love your reports - they really take us with you.
