Merry Christmas

Oh wait, I got a little confused with all the SNOW that fell in Boise last weekend. We had about 24 hours of heavy wet snow this weekend, and it felt like Christmas time. It was about 36 degrees on Saturday which is 40 degrees below normal and over 60 degrees below the high for the day. The photo above shows the snow just beginning. Earlier in the morning Kessler asked to wear his snow boots, and Mat said "that's silly it's almost summer - you can't wear snow boots". I guess he was wrong. We had 1-1/2" of rain (wet snow), but Bogus Basin got 16" of snow. The other photo was from a few weekends ago.
Another mystery we've been dealing with for the past year, is the disappearance of DVDs - mostly the boy's movies. It started with The Jungle Book disappearing last summer. We thought we accidentally donated it to the Library. Then some Baby Einstein DVDs disappeared, then Monster's, Inc, and finally A Bugs Life this weekend. We began to suspect Caulder and Kessler, but every time we asked them where the movies were, they said the mailman had them. Finally, Mat decided to check inside the DVD player. Sure enough all five movies were in there. They had been shoved in through the VHS slot. Unbelievably, the VHS and DVD players had remained functional the entire year.
