We were looking forward to a quiet January and February in Mussoorie before the chaos of our 2011 schedule launches. Neither of us mentally prepared for the abnormally cold winter it has been. Not abnormally cold for Nebraska...on the contrary, a winter up here to a Nebraskan would be considered warm with temps in the upper 30’s to 40’s. With no central heat, days without sun and power and water issues, it doesn’t feel warm. We wear lots of layers at all times, drink lots of hot drinks and burn lots of wood. I have felt like we are somewhat hibernating, but we are trying to stay active and take advantage of the calmness of the season.
Some significant conversation topics around the fire these evenings have included...
Our approaching move to Delhi this fall and exit from Mussoorie, a place that has become our home and eMi's office for 13 years!
Our two trips to the states planned, one rapidly approaching in March.
Visitors coming.
Our new interns arrival and a new season of project work for Graham.
