Hello Snow!

We've been back, in our home state, less than 24 hours. And we're buried in snow! It's everywhere! Here in the desert, we are buried. No one knows how to act. But us "northerners," we're actually happy to see the snow!

Other than it being "Storm 2011," we should be a little worried. We were told to conserve gas and electricity. Things are running short. Really short. There have been rolling blackouts, all around. Up north, most of our families are without gas. Thank goodness they have fireplaces and wood burning stoves. We need to keep warm.

Gabe and I are trying to keep busy. You know, there's not a whole lot for us to do. Our moving trucks, are stuck in the storm. We're conserving energy, so we're trying to stay away from using the computer or TV. Everything, and I mean everything is closed! This is a nice way to start our new life. Simply. Not a lot of fuss. Just getting back to what's important. Gabe and me. Let's hope, the snow stays around for a few more days!
