No Relief Yet

There just doesn't seem to be any break in this cold weather pattern we are experiencing. It was 32 again yesterday AM and the rain/snow mix continued for the early part of the day. This is what our poor car looked like yesterday:

The skies cleared a bit in the afternoon and, even though the precipitation has stopped, it remains very cold. The weather has been so bad in this area that Yellowstone was completely closed for a good part of the day. Our park remained open, but we believe that the steady, large crowds in the store, are a result of folks just wanting to get in out of the cold. Our business hasn't suffered at all through this bad weather. It makes you wonder if - or why - people don't check the forecasts before coming to the area. Of course, many reservations were made in advance and probably involved no-refund issues.

The countdown continues as we have only 5 working days left after today. It is a race to see if the weather improves before we have to leave...
