We are finally experiencing some winter weather now that softball practice is upon us, of course! My poor granddaughters, it is frigid outside. The snow level is right around 1000' and is about 9 miles up the road from us. Between the wind off the ocean and the very cold air from the mountains, sure makes it for some miserable weather to be outside in between showers! Last night we had a terrific thunder and lightning storm. At first, I thought it was an earthquake shaking the house. It is good weather for staying in and doing some crafting, unfortunately I had to go to work, but I did squeeze in a little cardmaking last night for the challenge.
