Beautiful Pics. They look so nice from Fl. it's a little warmer. Tomorrow they expect 80 degree and today we had to put the heat on for a little while to take the chill out. Happy New Year's to everyone. Sue

I have to say, I'm thinking we REALLY need to go to Arizona next winter. My feet and toes are FREEZING> It's 19 degrees here right now. I'd love some of that 80 degree in Florida weather!!!!

Glad to see that someone has started a Happy New Year posting. I have just over an hour my time till the new year begins. Will spend the 'ball dropping' in the outdoor hot tub with some wine....after I sweep off the 8 inches of snow from the cover! Have some deck lights that will reflect the snow nicely. NYr resolution as far as quilting goes - not to be pressured into doing something that I REALLY don't want to do...quilting should be a pleasure, not a chore. Placed a last minute order from H of Paduchah.....20% off till midnight...even on sale fabric. Peace and blessings to all of you in this upcoming year. May your thread not tangle, your cuts always be true, the bobbin not snaggle, and you love what you do.

Deb -- that's an excellent resolution!!! And I'm jealous of the hot tub in the snow!!!!! Happy New Year and blessing to you for the lucky year 2013!!

I love your pics. They make me homesick. I lived in the Eugene/Springfield area for 10 years when I was a child. I remember being able to see 3 Fingered Jack, Mount Shasta? and taking trips and driving by the Sisters. It has been almost 33 years since we moved back to Texas and I still miss Oregon. Thanks for the memories.

Beautiful pictures!! I've always wondered what it's like to live in a place where there is such natural beauty that you can see everyday. I've lived in St. Louis (born and raised) Iowa where you see farms, and Louisville, KY where you just see a river front downtown.

Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos from a beautiful part of this world! Happy New Year.

pictures are beautiful -- so glad we don't have snow or ice here at the moment (snow is rare but ice happens)-- it's cool (mid 50s) and damp and dreary looking outside -- I do enjoy seeing snow scenes!!

Your pictures show how beautiful Oregon in the snow. I have never had an opportunity to go there. Living in SC where it is 53 degrees now and rainy, my thermostat is on 73 and I'm under a blanket in my long flannel gown and robe! We skied, skated and sledded when we lived in Ohio in the 70's and it would be so cold with wind chills -40 degrees. My car doors would freeze so I would use a Bic lighter to heat the key to get it open! Can't do cold now as these old bones just don't take it anymore! Happy New Year!
