I am dreaming of a liltte yurt getaway like this with my husband and baby girl. A perfect first camping trip I think. Even better, maybe one just the two of us and some of friends, someday soon (though I can't imagine spending a night away from my girl). The snow has been good, hasn't it? Our roads which are usually closed mid-December did not close this year until almost the end of January, and although it was nice with the baby to be able drive to my home for that extra month and a half, I have welcomed this snow, and the small trek that comes with it.
