Old Mill Cafe

While the kids were sleeping in, we slipped away for breakfast at The Old Mill Cafe. The new owners have kept all the charm and added a whole lot of deliciousness to the menu! I am looking forward to trying lunch and dinner on the next visit.

Downtown Plain, Wa.

 Turn left for Poofy's Paradise, turn right for Plain.

Spring is on its way.

Winter get-aways

We had a beautiful mid-winter break at Poofy's. While the rest of family was up at Stevens I played on the local cross country and skate ski trails.

Saying hi to the horses.

My first time on the trails that loop through Thousand Trails.

A great snowy hike to look over the Wenatchee River.

Perfectly placed perch...

Saddest day of the week is when we have to go home. Poofy's has a vacancy this weekend. Lots of fresh snow at Stevens....

Its always fun when the snow slides off the roof. We keep a good supply of shovels for our complimentary "snow shovel " workout sessions.

I can't sit on the deck at the moment, but it sure is pretty.

I decided to clear the path to the side and let my son tackle the entrance.

After all, I have more important things to get to.

He did a fabulous job.

The temporary living room view...

Winter weekends in the Cascades...

We had some friends join us at Poofy's over the MLK long weekend. Perfect opportunity to check out the scenery around Plain.

 Pretty pictures at Fish Lake.

 Ice fishing anyone?

The shack at Fish Lake.

Just off the trail looking over the Chiwawa River, one of our favorites in any season.

We did a little snowshoeing for this lovely view of Lake Wenatchee.

Chilling out before the boys snowboard down.

Winter Wonderland

I forgot to hit the "publish button" on my December post!

The snow has arrived turning Poofy's Paradise into a winter wonderland once again. Light fluffy powder fell from the sky all weekend. I can't wait to get back. 

First snow fall for our new sauna.

Back inside, I was busy getting things looking festive.

Happy Holidays! We hope you'll visit Poofy's Paradise in the new year.
