Merry Christmas/Winter Solstice Tidings

I just want to take a moment to wish you all my very best. Although our gatherings may not be great in size this season, I hope they are immeasurably merry in spirit. I have recently been reminded of just how precious life is. May we celebrate the simple things that can easily, but never should be taken for granted this holiday.

In reference to my post last week about getting out to break in my new snowshoes - I unfortunately was unable to get out for a hike in the fresh powder. I did get to do lots of shoveling though, haha! I was out yesterday for a couple miles but the snowshoes weren’t as necessary as just having my microspikes with trail and snow conditions trampled and crusty at this point. The fresh mountain air felt great though and it was nice to get out with snow on the ground in honor of the Winter Solstice and Holiday Season.

With Warmest Wishes and Gratitude, please enjoy this handful of festive pics and have yourself a Merry little Christmas! 🎄❄️🎅
