Saturday 01-30-16

When I woke up this morning I was expecting to see the start of a major snow storm. But it was a partly sunny and very mild. Temps were climbing into the high 30s with no sign of snow clouds. After breakfast, we went onto the lake with Benny and watched the snow boarders with kites getting ready to ski across the lake. There were at least 10 kites waiting for the wind to pick up. Several of these boarders were there for hours. After lunch we decided to go into Breckenridge to see the snow sculptures.  It was around 2pm, when the clouds moved in and started to snow. However, the temps were still in the mid 30s and the snow was VERY wet. Judging for the sculptures was completed around noon so we were able to see the winners. Because of the warm temps however, several of the sculptures started to fall apart. It was a shame to see the hard work  of many of the people last only 1 day. By evening, the snow increased and we had several inches on the ground by the time we returned home. Lets hope the snow will continue thru the night.
