Preston and YaoDan: 2018
Snowfall was fairly heavy this year, more than our neighbors expect in a given year. I had two houses to care for because Dani had purchased a house on behalf of her family late in the previous year. That house, halfway up the mountain and on the north slope, received a lot of snow and the ploughs left a meter-high ridge of icy blocks for me to clear. It took three visits to finally get everything cleared. Of course, within a couple of weeks, everything had melted anyway. So it goes. Here I am clearing snow at our home in the valley.
Dani and the family decided to sell that house; the changes made to mortage qualification and the slowing market made everyone worry that selling would be difficult and little would be gained.

For some reason, we were obsessed with trying to photograph this moonrise. After nearly two hours and dozens of attempts, we finally succeeded. Then we promptly forgot about it.
