It snowed last night and this morning on into mid afternoon. My deck now shows a depth of 5-1/2 inches – that’s the total after the older snow has settled and compacted and more snow fallen on top of it. But, keep in mind, my deck is in Columbine Lake, not on the “hill”. Our Hot Dog Ride this morning had just enough snow for folks to ride to the event, and ride some of the trails after the food. Right now, the off-trail areas are a bit treacherous – there is just enough snow to hide most of the rocks and logs and other obstacles. Tom and Pat came home tired, sore and (of course) happy.

Well, it's really starting to look like winter around here. But, not like it is out on the Front Range and the eastern plains. I've had some Front Range reports of anywhere from 11" to 31" of snow. But, don't load your sleds and head up here yet. Grand Lake only got about 4-6". Really. It's pretty disappointing when Denver gets more than we do. But, that's what happens sometimes.
With any luck, the Eberly's "Snow Dance" will bring more snow up here.
RAFFLE TICKETS - our CSA Raffle tickets are here. Contact any board member to purchase tickets or contact me to get tickets to sell. The only catch is that you have to be in Colorado to sell them. There have been changes to the law and we can't sell them out of state. But, if you're IN Colorado when you buy tickets, it doesn't matter where you live. This year the first prize is a 2009 Arctic Cat M6-153" valued at $9399 and the second prize is $1000. The tickets are still just $5 each. And, half the net proceeds from each ticket come back to our club. So, try for the prizes and help your club...

We were starting to get a lot of "wanted" and "for sale" items, so we're going to keep them posted here - I can update it much faster than putting it in the newsletter. email me with your items for sale, to trade, or what you're looking for and I'll post it here. To respond to an item, either use the information in the post or contact me - mooseduds@yahoo.com - and I'll get you the contact information you need. If you DON'T want your phone number or your email in the post - let me know. I can give it to members who ask for it without needing to post it out here.
When you give me something to post here, tell me how long you want it to stay "up" so I can keep this blog clean. Debbie
