Remedy for House Fever
We decided to have a little 3 day get-away to the Mt. Shasta area, about a one and 1/2 hour drive south of Ashland. Our cabin was right on Lake Siskiyou, a beautiful, serene lake with views galore. We hiked around the lake (7 miles) and the next day to Castle Lake and Heart Lake. Beautiful views everywhere you look.
Fear conquered!
After a 2 year hiatus, we finally got ourselves out on the downhill slopes. The first couple of runs were kinda scary but after that it was 'like riding a bike.' We were a little disappointed that 70+ year olds don't ski free at Mt. Shasta mountain, but the rates are about half of bigger ski areas. Great snow, sunny day - what's not to like?

We go down to the yurt in the Shasta Valley for some off grid peace and beauty. Recently we added a cabin tent to make having guests easier. Even though both structures have stoves, we don't usually go there in winter - just too cold.
