It’s been about 3 weeks now getting my 4th newest computer since Thanksgiving. Last night my IT guy had my mouse running all around via CrossLoop. So, now I can update my websites, and get back in to rolling smoothly again. (Where to start?!?) 🙂 Albums soon! Thanks all for your patience!
Meanwhile, take a peek at a few cabins coming up. Planning on sunny sky snow pix today and some fun Real Estate Tours over the next few days. Don is out and about with his plow now, so we can park and open those doors for you!

Buddy is lovin’ it that we didn’t get more snow! He thinks his stable is the place to be when we are treated to the white stuff. Of course, I love our Southern California snow and it is even better when shared.
The sun is shining, roads are clear, and we only have about 4 to 6 inches on the ground at our place. Looks like this storm is over. Betcha Crestline has a little more (they are sooooooooo lucky!).

There seem to be a lot of skunks roaming ’round the Mountain these days. We had inspections out at Iron Spring Ranch today and the new buyers-to-be found a dead skunk out in the meadow. I mentioned it to the seller and thought some of you might appreciate his recipe!
Bill replied with: “Uli, my dog got skunked yesterday so maybe she is the skunk killer. She’s a smart dog but has got skunked at least 30 times. The recipe we use that works best is dish detergent mixed with baking soda. You make it into a paste and leave in on for ten minutes. Uli has gotten skunked so many times that she comes in the house and jumps right in the tub.”
Hope you don’t need to use this but just in case I am guessing some of you will have extra dish soap and baking soda on your next shopping list!

Today I was asked where the best place is to get snow chains. I remembered that one of you gave me a contact years ago, that I added to our Mountain Yellow Pages. Well, I gave him a call and he is such an interesting guy to talk to on the phone. He works out of his home so you must have an appointment. If those 19 folks on Yelp are telling the truth, he is the go-to-guy for snow chains in this part of the world.
However, there is a catch! He won’t sell you the chains unless you have a lesson with him on how to put them on with the least amount of stress so you can get back in your warm car real fast and make it to your destination with no slipping and sliding. Such a deal!
And! When I mentioned that we are on Palomar, Tomas replied, “My wife and I met on Palomar Mountain in 1995. We were on a Sierra Singles hike where you go to meet, greet, hike and learn. We were each with someone else but ended up with each other. We love Palomar Mountain!”
So, give Tomas and Patti Weller a call and they will set you up with a great set of chains just in time for our next big snow!
