After the heat of the Arizona summers, I guess that we didn’t really understand what it meant to own a “mountain cabin” on the edge of the Mogollon Rim. We expected to enjoy our cabin from time to time during the winter when it was sunny—but no, a mountain cabin means SNOW even in Arizona! And, uh, we don't do snow.
Here are some photos at our cabin of what we have been seeing off and on for the past four months, with the help of the security cameras that Dan installed….SNOW!!!
….And foxes!
This winter our foxes have been enjoying both our front and back decks.
But now that SPRING has sprung, the snow has melted, so we are headed up tomorrow to enjoy a few days at our beautiful cabin. It will still be 20 degrees cooler than “down in the Valley” (we have learned that in our mountain hamlet of Pine everyone calls the Phoenix/Mesa area “down in the Valley”).
This is the view today of our cabin from our security cameras…no snow but lots of sunshine!
We are more than happy to share our decks with the fox family.
And we expect Mr. Elk to welcome us back home again!
