The first shot is great, so cool to see the ice everywhere

Thanks guys... I used to live in that house! 10,000 feet up in the Colorado mountains, twenty miles back off pavement, surrounded by national forest. It was fun.... except in the winter, the county only snow plowed the first 19 miles... made a 4-wheel drive a necessity. If the snow was really deep.. you just stayed home, or you got the snowshoes / cross country ski's out. Ex-wife story... she no longer owns it... lost it after she divorced me!

Here is a closeup of the house with the frosty trees surrounding it.

Great story, up until the divorce part off course. Love the house, can't imagine living so remote.

It was different.. really quiet, much slower pace! I miss it sometimes, when I am working downtown Denver. I don't miss cutting and splitting 4 or 5 cords of wood for the winter, though! lol!
