Snow

All day yesterday the snow fell in the mountains while we were drenched with rain. The snow level yesterday was not quite down to the Jackson level, but was starting to appear in the hills behind us:

We ended the day with over .50 inches of rain - maybe more, since my rain gauge was clogged - and probably had over a foot of snow in the Tetons.

This morning is much colder than yesterday - it is 35 outside right now - and here is the status of the snow, as it has reached Jackson and is starting to stick on the ground:

We don't know how much of this will be around by the end of the day, but we have plans to go out to dinner with Donna and Rachel (her daughter) at the Bar-J Chuckwagon tonight.

The snow has stalled our outdoor activities, but we hope to get some shots during the day of the status of the storm.

Our week ended last night with a (relatively) small number of walk-ins and there was an entire section of our lodge that had to be closed down as a result of a leak that was allowing water to enter several rooms along the southern side of the lodge. It's a good thing that we didn't need that block of rooms to sell last night. With only three working days left, we anticipate only one sellout - on Saturday night for the scheduled soccer tournament this weekend. Sunday and Monday should be very slow and boring to end our season. We will spend a lot of time between now and Monday getting things organized for our departure on the 2nd of October...
