Mountain Magic at Christmas

Well, this is our very first Christmas ever that we have not been with our children. We have found that the choice we made to be here in Oregon, although exhilarating, can be a bit of a struggle being away from loved ones, especially at the holidays. All of our precious memories of love shared, food consumed, sounds of laughter, and family moments together at Christmas celebrations in the past will remain in our hearts forever. And, hopefully we'll be together very soon and next Christmas too !!!
On Christmas morning we awakened to inspiring Godful beauty outside our windows. The "frozen fog" coated everything and the air was hushed and peaceful. Our breakfast at this quaint Lithia Springs Inn was a charming surprise.
We chilled for more than 2 hours in this festive breakfast room enjoying friendly, provocative conversation with the owner and other interesting people celebrating their holiday at the inn.
Take a closer look at that wine cabinet on the right of the fireplace.........this place was filled with some very unique pieces of furniture.
