Here in the high desert, we've been treated to about 7 weeks of sunshine and no snow. It gets cooooold at night, down near zero most nights, but then it's back up to mid 40's during the day. All of this means the roads have been wonderfully clear as we had to drive 180 miles to Boise to pick up my college daughter at the airport, and 140 miles to Baker City and 140 miles to La Pine ( and 160 miles to Sisters tomorrow) to watch my other daughter play basketball. So no complaints there, but it makes for kind of a non-Christmassy view of my house:
And when all the packages were open and wrappings strewn about, this emerged as my favorite present:
My thoughtful husband took copies of The Compound and four of the foreign language versions and had them framed. Cool.

What a great gift from your husband! Glad you had safe travels picking up your girls!!
What a thoughtful gift! Here in Minnesota we had a brown Christmas too-- with temperatures in the 40s!!! Very un-Minnesota-!
I like seeing your house even with no snow.
Stephanie,
It's so much fun to see where you live, and what a wonderful gift from your husband, as well as a reminder of THE COMPOUND's success!
That husband of yours is a keeper! Very thoguthful! I, too, love seeing your house, even without snow.
As David said, your hubby's a keeper! Those framed books seem like a great reminder of your success as well as inspiration as you move forward with new projects. Very cool.
Weird weather around these parts, too: plenty of wind but little rain...
I posted a comment days ago, but it didn't appear. I love visualizing where you live, Stephanie. Such wonderful openness!
Congrats on all the foreign editions and new titles!
