No Turkey, Lots of Gobble





We had a great 4-day retreat out to the cabin over Turkey day but it was a very non-traditional Thanksgiving affair.  Just us turkeys.

Our friends Dan & Val were on their way out for the weekend on Wednesday evening and their car broke down in route, so they had to bail, but it didn't keep us from heading out to make it happen.  We stopped at the pass for a few hours of playtime-- K and I, that is, while A studied -- then we headed into the Leavenworth for a nice dinner somewhere.  Surprised that the town wasn't abuzz but we did have options and settled on the most traditional of the bunch and it was a great place for a Thanksgiving away from home.

The weather was perfect: either full-on snowing of it was a perfect blue sky!  Cold but not too cold, nice and crisp.  So nice to have an extended stay at the cabin and I look forward to a couple 3+ day visits this winter.
