Flat Tire... so it goes..

Flat Tire... so it goes..

Light snow last night has continued to improve ski surfaces on the mountain. Guests coming back to the inn to change prior to departing the area reported mainly packed powder conditions. Some trails had a nice coating of light fluff, probably the result of being groomed early in the evening allowing time for natural snow to accumulate. Temperatures in the area are in the low 20's with bright sunshine. A very nice late January ski day!

On a comic note, this must be our time for Mary and I to have car trouble. Last week the Subaru gave us problems. Today we awoke to a very flat tire on Mary's Jeep. Of course the lug nuts were frozen (or rusted) on. I had no success in getting them off. The local service guy had no luck getting them off (Standing on the wrench handle jumping up and down). So it was hauled away to a local garage for a little pneumatic lug wrench action. As the say..."So it goes"...but I would rather be skiing!
