So far we've had at least 3 inches of snow at the Western Wilhelm Outpost. Our tractor, "Vernie", is gassed up and the blade is on so "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!"

Although a lot of church services were cancelled on Christmas Eve, we had a good sized crowd at our annual gathering. It's so great to catch up with everyone, and we always learn something new from the next gerneration!
