Watching the snow come donw

I am watching the snow coming down and down.  I think how far I have come to get my place up in the mts ready for winter.  And I am thinking of what I can do to make it better next year. So guess it makes it real I am gonna stay here.  Our nearest large town is so full of drugs & murders I do not feel safe further down into town.
I grew up on a cattle ranch in Mt so love my horses and acreage altho just 5, and still have doubts I can maintain it the 3 acres I actually live on but I am sure gonna try.
I am not far from trails to ride, trails to snowmobile on and seeing the deer/elk is still a thrill to me.  So many people tell me at age 60 (almost 61) I need to give this up for an apartment.  Why don't I just give up now ....never always a country girl.
