The wind roars through the Arkansas Valley at the base of Monarch Pass where our little trailer sits.
Gusts up to 45 mph are predicted for this afternoon. Snow showers skitter through the fields, then whirl high in the air around the campground.

Here’s our neighbor, the Livingston’s. They’re full-time RVer’s with 4 sons. Ages 10 to 2, I think. Their blog is www.livingstonfamilyadventures.com
The temperature’s not so bad. In the 20’s. Last year on this day it was minus 29!
David will be heading off to ski soon. I’m hanging out in the Tramper today, recovering from a nasty cold.
It’s cozy in our little home. So far it’s only rocking only gently. I have no fear of being swept away. The trailer is extremely well-built and I haven’t lost that 25 pounds I thought I would on this trip, so we are anchored firmly to the ground.
