A blog of no uncertain musings. What goes on in my mind is often a source of wonder to me.

More Skiing; More Sightseeing
I do not understand!

The average snowfall in Crested Butte, CO for January over the past 10 years is 37.7 inches. And our host for the Air B&B we're staying in left us NO snow shovel. Good thing it only snowed 2-3 inches last night. At least the powers that plow the driveways are on the ball.

And the forecast today is for sunny skies and no snow. Yesterday morning while Jeanette and I were in town taking in the sights, it snowed as we arrived, turned sunny as we walked from store to store, turned cloudy and snowed heavily while we ate lunch. I thought we were back in Missouri with the changes happening so often.

Then I found out the local brewery doesn't open until 3pm. Bummer. Rather than wait another three hours, we headed home to rest. It turns out the 8900 ft. elevation can really take the wind out of two old folks walking around town. We'll go back later this afternoon to check out the brewery.

For now, we'll enjoy the fabulous sights of the sun on the snow-covered mountains.
