As many of you know I hibernated Doeville last winter. Somehow and some way all of my stars lined up for an opportunity to spend 6 months in Ten Sleep, Wyoming . I jumped on it with both feet, a camera and my wonderful Doeville journal. I stayed in the home of an incredible couple, Bob and Gayle, while they went to Idaho to visit and take care of his mother. Before leaving Florida, My husband and I loaded up my Prairie Schooner (cargo trailer) filled with items to homestead West! Just exactly what does a girl take West? Well...my sewing machines, fabrics, computer, furry blankets, flannel pj's, and of course...my Dog Jackson! As we traveled across country my adventure began to unfold! The aroma of home filled the air as we passed through my hometown of Chattanooga, TN .Then we rolled through the green hills of Kentucky, then the arch in St.Louis, and a super treat was Cabela's headquarters in Sydney, Nebraska . Several days later we started seeing those absolutely awesome mountains of the West!
As soon as we arrived and got the schooner unpacked... big delicious, beautiful, soft snowflakes fell on my eyelashes! The PURE silence around us was so amazing tucked in the mountains all around us. The next day we rose to a soft, powdery snow which laid like a blanket across the landscape. For me, snow is so authentic and soothing...it is one of my most favorite things! Jackson and I enjoyed so many days of playing, hiking and learning to snowshoe...thank you precious Jeannie! Be sure to push "read more" below for more pics.
