The weather man said tonight that we are past the date when we could get very cold weather. It has been a very mild winter actually. Little valley snow, no big storms are real cold weather. Supposed to be in the 40's again in a couple of days. I enjoyed x-country skiing in my fields a few days ago. Sun, good snow, great view. Whitefish Mountain Resort has received 29 INCHES in the last 7 days! Wow. It was time. Some great powder in the sun yesterday.
Coming back from Crossfit Libertas at 8am this morning, there was a lot of construction activity happening in the former Borders book store. Natural Grocers is hiring and will be soon opening. I personally love Mountain Valley Foods for produce, great service and everything I purchase to cook good, clean meals and stay healthy. Easy to get to and you don't have to hike through a huge parking lot and store. Never thought I would see myself writing such a thing. When we moved to the Flathead Valley in 1995, there was no such thing as box stores or big parking lots. Not so any more.
Lots of hiring going on and for good jobs. Things seem a lot perkier in the economic areas going into this new year. A lot of activity in real estate. Good news for those of us who have stuck it out through 5 very challenging years. The ND oil fields and Canadian tourists have kept the Flathead Valley alive and for that we are thankful!
