So, what else has Ellen been up to?In September, she met Keith Lee Morris, a wonderful author who was on a book tour, reading from his new novel, "The Dart League King". Ellen got five signed copies!
Snow came to Ellensburg, along with most of Washington State, in time for a white Christmas.
New Year's Eve was celebrated at a festive house party, with good friends, good food, champagne and fireworks.
A nice winter drive in the Yakima Canyon, spotting bald eagles, big horn sheep and great blue herons. The January flood heaved up huge chunks of river ice onto the banks.
A couple weeks later, the 39th Annual Peace & Gourmet Float took place on the upper canyon of the Yakima River, with gorgeous weather and great food enjoyed al fresco. One of the best things about our valley is enjoying the outdoors, anytime of year!
The Ellensburg Chamber of Commerce and Central Washington University hosted a "Business After Hours" event, where community members had a chance to meet Jim Gaudino, new CWU President, and network with other business owners. Some lucky folks even won tickets to the "Chanticleer" performance at CWU. Here's Ellen with Mr. Gaudino and Ron Cridlebaugh of the Chamber.
The month of February was drawing to a close, and a promise of spring showed in a lovely sunset over Manastash Ridge.
