Who Wants To Come Over for a Barbecue?

I thought tomorrow would be a good day to have a barbecue. I just need to clear off the patio table and dig out a few chairs.
We can kick back and have a few cocktails while the kids play in the backyard.
 
Today is our sixth consecutive snow day. Our garbage has been sitting out for four days waiting to be picked up. Several cities have declared a state of emergency, buildings are collapsing, 25 schools in the valley have major damage, and everything is just a big mess.

Marcus picked out a new book which is very fitting. Pete the Cat gets three snow daze. 
On the fourth day, he decides he wants to go to school, so he does something about it. We need more Petes in the world!
Marcus has abandoned his room for a warmer sleeping climate lately.
 Our kids love the hot tub. I think it was -3 outside on this particular venture.
The deep snow has put my chukar hunting on hold, but here is a photo I took on a recent outing. Note the fog at lower elevations-it was really nice to get out of the inversion. Some of you may recognize the butte in the background.
 Stay warm and safe everyone, and think....school!!!
