Cold!

On Sunday night we had some cold weather! I was busy all day. When I took a break before dinner, I peeked outside and found this! It was only a dusting. I still found it exciting! I love snow!

Speaking of cold weather, Saturday night was frigid, too! Our neighbors had an outdoor social event. They borrowed our barbeque grill to make their fire! Here’s a pic of our friends enjoying themselves next door. My husband and I were too tired to attend.

Raquel’s father died when she was a baby – that’s what she thought…

She receives a mysterious phone call – stating her father is alive and in hospice. He must see her before he dies. Why has her mother lied to her for all these years about her father’s “death”?

She must rely on Patrick, her ex, to help her to make the trip to see her father during a massive snowstorm. Patrick has his own set of problems – he never told Raquel the real reason why he abandoned her three years ago.
