Pictures From the Skier and a Surprise in the Mail

Bob was able to get a few hours of skiing in again today. He went to a ski resort called Crystal Mountain up near our beautiful Mt Rainier. I'm just posting a few of the beautiful sights he was able to capture today. Since I don't ski, this is how I get to see the views that he sees from the slopes.

Below is a picture of Mt Rainier. He said it looked like a big ice cream cone from up on top of the ski area.

When I got the mail today there was an envelope from Koda's Betty mixed in amongst the other stuff. I hurried into the house and opened it and was thrilled to see a squished quarter that she got for me during a recent visit to Disneyland. I was so excited !!! My first squished quarter !!!! I have been getting squished penny's for my son in law for several years, and just last year decided to start collecting them myself too. So I have a pretty good collection started from the places we have visited, plus a couple that Robin has sent me from Florida. So I want to take this opportunity to thank Betty for this very special gift. I've already ordered a squished quarter collector's book. Thank you, thank you !!! And Robin thank you again for the two you've sent me.

When I was a kid, I had a whole bunch of elongated penny's ~ but like some of those other treasures from my childhood....they seem to have disappeared.

Tonight's a big night on TV. The 'American Idol' elimination show and 'The Office.' Have a good evening....until next time, Linda
