Didn't make to the high country, but we did cruise around the neighborhood a bit. Didn't get a fire built because all my helpers have a bad cough.
Tried to get the kitten moving but I'm going to have to put it in the shop and warm it up. But I ran out of time.

I had to put it out. Kept trying to jump up on the counter. And besides, it never caught even one mouse.
oh, just check under the seat and you find all the mice it has caught, they are great mousers!!!

Another 3-4 inches of snow today. A little 'warmer' oil did the trick for the kitten. Actually I'm told it's a warmer carburetor. Anyway it made a few laps for us today along with our 'lifeboat'.

Yea I remember GMoose saying he had to heat his up on a cold start. Carried a little heater just for that. PP said it's just the carb design. Guess I'll bring a my buddy heater for that.
I used to ski Sun Valley many moons ago. Old Baldy is kind of ugly until covered with snow. Sun Valley, if you don't ski, is really all about watching what we called "the beautiful people"; i.e., the rich and famous.
Of course the Trinity mountains are a different story.

If you missed the prefunction, and it looked like you all did since we were the only one there, here's a recap.

We could probably use a few of them here in St. Louis over the next few days. We go on lock down with just one inch of snow.
Tomorrow, we get 10" to 25."
A few decades ago when Crumpy and I worked across the river, we had a sudden blizzard. So, we decided to go home together in one car. As we approach the MO river bridge the traffic was really slow. So, we diverted off to a hotel restaurant for dinner.
As we watched though the big windows the traffic moved slowly, we patted ourselves for the decision.
By 10:00PM, we could see the same UPS truck on the road stuck in the same spot .which we had been behind when we exited the Interstate. It was pretty much in the same spot along with all the other traffic.
Our son Joe went across the street to grandma's.
We booked a room and had a wonderful time.
The highway dept. spent a week clearing the highway of abandoned vehicles.
According to the weather forecasts, this storm will be the same or worse.

Sinclair Wyoming. Next time you pass through reach out!Well we managed one more trip on Sunday. Past SV participants will recognize the Couch Summit run. It gets up high pretty fast so I figured the last best snow. From last week until this the snow below 6,000 feet is going fast. Above that still quite a lot of snow, but old man winter is definitely losing the battle to the Sun.
Slide from earlier in the season. One of those 5 risk avi days no doubt.

Hard to tell from this pic but I'd guess we were sitting on about 6 feet of snow there.
