Fall is here in a big way. We have had our first high desert frost of the season and snow flakes fell in Glenwood Springs where we both work. I-70 passes (Vail and Eisenhower) were closed due to snow last week. Mountain tops are now white with fresh snow.<\/p>\n
Of course, it’s colder and snowier up at Sanderling. I had been to The Lot last weekend and pretty much shut down The Box, emptying the holding tanks and draining the water. All the “freezable” stuff like liquid soaps, canned goods, and lotions and potions were brought home. I have not brought The Box down from the high country yet, though, as we don’t have off-street parking for it until our snowbird neighbors head back to Arizona. They let us park The Box on their property in the same spot they normally park their Class-A motorhome. I did bring home the chipper, as I decided not to over-winter it on The Lot.<\/p>\n
Here are some Fall color photos taken over the last couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

A walkabout at Sanderling revealed some damage from a recent wind storm. We found a couple trees that were snapped off at the base, perhaps from a microburst:<\/p>\n
