And then I lived up to my name...

We woke up the next morning, having slept in and slept comfortably, to a winter wonderland...of sorts.

No, those aren't all cars, some of those are where cars WERE overnight.

I told you that I thought our stop in Boomtown would be the best chance to get a picture of the truck with snow. Remember that? I was incredibly wrong.

And I thought we would be spending all of our time going through the casino or to the car, so I wouldn't need good snow shoes. Plus, we were in Reno, where the snow doesn't stick. So my fine friends, your narrator lived up to her name and wore her flip flops...in the snow.

It wasn't deep, just deep enough.

Working Man had far more sensible shoes. I had sensible shoes...they were just in the truck...and I refused to put them on.

I don't like ice, it makes me fall.

And the snow stuck to the bottom of my flip flops...just so I could slip a little more.

Notice my toes...they have curled in on themselves because they were very cold. I'm starting to rethink my name here.

Better yet, we went to Cabela's in Boomtown and the fudge lady looked at my feet and said, "And you're wearing flip flops!" Why yes, yes I am. Next time I'll consider socks and shoes. Consider mind you.

On a side note, I'm going to be offline for a couple of days while we put wood flooring down in our living room. Please, do not revolt, I will be posting again when I come back.
