29 Jan 07 Nelson, BC

 Sure enough, Jan’s sniffles turned into a full-blown cold, so it was a quiet day. Larry felt a little under the weather too so was happy to comply with that. Heard Nicole cancelled their plans to ski at Whitewater and she went off to take care of some errands in town. In late afternoon we finally got to do our belated Christmas celebration – stockings for the adults and gifts for Somer. We did Christmas crackers and donned paper hats. Somer liked her gifts and loved crawling into the bags. She got a book, Little Miss Chatterbox, in her stocking and stopped to “read” through it before going on to the rest of the stuff. Then we feasted on home-made squash soup and had a last hot tub session before bed. Shortly after we turned in, we heard the eerie and frightening sound of a coyote outside. It seamed to be on this side of the river, though we thought they were all on the other side.
