That was a great childhood.
I used to get up early catch the trout too but while camping and add If make myself a trout breakfast too. That’s before I knew about the Mercury in Calif.
Also one of my grandfather had a pet deer mother died or was abandoned who loved me and follow me everywhere. Thought I was his side kick but he’d get rough sometimes with deer play and let him know I don’t have a rough hide for those feet of his.
He too was killed by a hunter who didn’t know about him when a friend who was allowed to hunt on grandpas land took a friend but didn’t tell him.
Just a few miles up the road either way you’ll need chains.
I wouldn’t think about driving up there now plus it’s prone to land slides on HWY 50 way.
My youngest though just got her stuff ready to go up there soon as she can.
Hope the ski bunnies think twice right now but probably closed.
I have some last minute shopping and my youngest daughter borrowed my car cuz she got a flat tire.
Want to grab a couple of things at the store. My daughter says it’s packed at Walmart but I’m not going there. Shoppers still out everywhere here.
Got any grandkids young enough for Santa? They have a Santa Tracker now. He’s out already on the Mid East somewhere last heard. NORAD Santa Tracker
