Outdoor Wednesday. . .Weekend in the Mountains

Last weekend we packed up warm clothes and

way too much food and took off for the mountains!

(snow covered mountains)

                                 Lazy Triple Creek Lodge
            Sometimes the only way to get to this lodge in the winter

is by snow cat.

We lucked out and were able to drive right to the

back porch!

This was the view out the front window. . .snow

covered hills as far as the eye could see!

I spent most of the time indoors, cause I'm kind of

a cold weather

 'PANSY' !

Something for everyone. . .

We even celebrated a birthday!

Have you noticed how little kids don't get as cold

as grownups.  They can stay outside in freezing cold

and it doesn't even seem to faze them, oh not me. . .

I thought the fire inside was wonderful!

The dinning area was big enough to seat

practically the whole clan. . .

The kitchen was a commercial kitchen, equipped

with double ovens and fridges.  A gas

range and large commercial sized pots and pans.

It even had 2 dishwashers so we could keep up with all the dishes

for 20+ people.

This is a view of the great room from the upstairs loft.

We had a fire burning most all the time, so it was always really

cozy down there!

There were 9 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. . .plenty of

room for people to crash at the end of the day!

It was a lot of work hauling everything up there

for the weekend!

But at the end of the day!

(or I should say, at the end of the weekend)

It was nice to spend some uninterrupted family time!

Very grateful for our 'mountain hiatus' . . .
