And sometimes USA Network.)<br /><br />Good luck with RtR - hope you guys get in this year! And I hope you get some snow too ... even if it does interfere with riding. (Just try to think of it as fire insurance.) :)Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-366775845290776474.post-7072609808013652522013-02-07T16:37:01.952-06:002013-02-07T16:37:01.952-06:00Now I'm even more convinced we are twins separ...Now I'm even more convinced we are twins separated at birth. I'm sure you've mentioned before you have no TV, but my head never wrapped around it until now. Sista!!<br /><br />Around these here parts, the big event on Sunday was the announcement of this year's RtR route. Had to stay up until midnight to register! :) Outside our house, those who don't appreciate the pigskin think fondly of the day as the best day of the entire year to go skiing because the slopes are so bare! Only this year, they are a little extra bare, not just of skiers, but white stuff, too... Thankfully, we did get a nice mountain dump the week before, so they said the skiing was great. Now we have more on the way this weekend, which means no riding. Dang.<br /><br />LOVE your photos and your walk. And a twin shadow shot would be really cool!Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-366775845290776474.post-55856875255540251352013-02-06T21:16:57.960-06:002013-02-06T21:16:57.960-06:00Good idea - if only I can remember that when the t...Good idea - if only I can remember that when the time comes.<br /><br />I hope you get more snow before winter's out. :)Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-366775845290776474.post-79437292456779598572013-02-06T21:15:44.830-06:002013-02-06T21:15:44.830-06:00As far as I'm concerned, yes - though we don&#...As far as I'm concerned, yes - though we don't have a TV and usually watch things online a day or two late.<br /><br />No idea what could possibly be worth staying inside for on a gorgeous day like Sunday. :)<br /><br />P.S.
