Sunday 01-31-16

This morning we had a blanket of new snow. The storm dumped between 9-12 inches overnight. This is part 1 of the snow storm that is targeting the mountains and Denver. The snow stopped for a couple of hours and then started again around 2pm. The only excitement for us and Benny was watching the snow plows and then going to Pug Ryans around 4:30pm for Happy Hour. The TV channels were covering the mass exodus of the skiers leaving the moutain resorts. Reports came in that the main highway RT 70 was closed east bound which caused a MAJOR traffic nightmare. Thank goodness we can walk to the local pubs. The storm is to continue thru at least Monday afternoon. LET IT SNOW. I have also included several additional pictures from the Snow Sculpture contest in Breckenridge.
