hood

Yesterday, we went to Mt. Hood and visited a snow park with the dogs, who felt right at home. Since Christmas was sunny in Portland, it was nice to see some powder deep snow over the holiday and watching the dogs fly threw it and unwittingly diving into the hidden snow pockets was wildly entertaining. I didn't realize just how snow-covered Hood really is until I was traipsing through it in the snow park which was entirely dressed in white. It was stunningly beautiful.

There are more pictures on my Flickr.

After we got home and ate some left over Turkey, we met up with some friends to see Sherlock Holmes, which was engaging and visually compelling, which I can vouch for, sitting in the first few rows.

After this I won a Scrabble match which I wouldn't normally mention, except I actually got a scrabble with the word "nitrates". I was pretty freakin' excited. I live life right on the edge you know.

I hope your holiday was equally as enjoyable.
