It snowed a bit yesterday and this morning-- the sun is out and the sky is blue . . . AND the thermometer is reading 1.4 degrees F. I'm thankful for a reliable power source and a nice warm fireplace and lots of wood to burn.
Friday Ray took me with him to the new SnoTel site at Burts-Miller Ranch. That was fun and interesting. I've been passing the ranch all these years and seeing it from the road always wondered what it was like. I imagine it is a haven for the Moose. Ray had to point the antenna toward the new master station at Dugway. If you're interested in what the snow situation is in the mountains of Utah, you should visit the Utah Snow Survey web page:

Oh and on the way in to our place we saw a herd of elk! No pictures this time.
