those photos are great, they seem so peaceful.  may i ask what kind of camera you have?  is it just a normal camera or is it higher quality?
the tree branches in the clear blue sky and the red barn pic are my favs. love 'em.

looking forward to another 3RR birthday!

You live in a truly stunning part of the world, David. I admit I am a little jealous...

Last winter we had snow here in Wellington for the first time in years. It was gone within a few days but it was still a thrill! I'm hoping it happens again this year but the odds are against it. &mmm

Well, I guess the lower 48 lost out on snow this year.  They're saying it's been the warmest winter in years, and the wind-driven wildfires are already starting in my state.  I'm already seeing blooms and green leaves on the trees, and it's not even spring yet!  The 3RR snow pics are nothing short of beautiful, though.

I'm sure this will be a party that we'll never forget.  With all of the TTR/DTR-W development, I predict we might get to climb aboard before too long.

In some ways after last year, this year was a blessing.  My area last year received the most snowfall in one season in over 35 yrs, straining most city and town budgets because of plowing and salting costs, plus the price of road salt jumped big time due to a shortage.  Last year, my area recieved 30 inches more than average, this year, we are well below average and have set numerous records for most days with above freezing temps(33+ degrees) and most 40+ degree days.  Yesterday and the day before, it was 68, 69(with high winds) here, and today its only going to be 45 and raining. 

I already put away all the snow clearing stuff, which means in the next couple weeks I am going to get hammered with a brutal winter storm  :)

I also cannot wait for these things to be released, its gonna be nice

I suppose that's true.  :)  People have really been able to get out and enjoy the nice weather.  Ski resorts have taken a hit, though, and I hear that we're going to pay for it this summer when it gets super hot really fast and the water and electric bills skyrocket due to drought and heat.

...6...5...4...



The invitations are on the way out!  Here's yours.



I'm planning to be on throughout the day.  It's BYO beverage, but we'll have a great selection of 3RR beers and mixers for your pleasure.  Cake will be cyber-served.  There's a lot of stuff we have for you to have a look at, and towards the end there'll be a big announcement or two about some things you might find of interest.  I'm hoping that every 3RR Regular* will join in the conversation and fun by posting, and that we'll see many former lurkers join the ranks.

We'll see.  My bet is on a great time for everyone!


David

No offense to Derry, but I sort of prefer coffee.  ::)  Tea's OK, though.

That is so very true.  I was disappointed that I only got to play with the snowmobile(and pulling the kids on inner tubes behind it) a couple times this year(both times we got enough snow to use it, we got 1 day out of it before the snow started melting), and I can only imagine what the summer is going to be like.  Last summer wasn't that bad here(we only hit 90 5 times) but we had craploads of high humidity days where even 80 felt uncomfortable.

Thanks for the birthday wishes David! Very much appreciated  :thumbsup:

Off and on internet outages have kept me from replying previously when I tried but better late than never  ;D   And I'll certainly be around for the party to celebrate the birthday of 3RR! Should be a day to remember!

Beautiful pictures by the way. I love those mountains in the background--can I ask around how high they are?

Hi David!

I haven't shown your Alaska pics to my wife. She comes from the tiny hot part of Turkey and is freezing all over when temperature falls belwo 18°C ... We had -15 to -20°C with very little snow here this winter and she almost died because of the "cold" ...  :D

Six years - time is running quite fast ... or is it that we just got a bit old by now?

Take care my friend!


Bernhard :thumbsup:

so 3RR is going to be 6 now?  3RR is officially a big boy now.  3RR gets to go to full day school(around here kindergarten is only half day) and the parents get a free taxpayer babysitter for 3RR.  Great times are ahead  :)
