Some snow

We are sitting in Starbucks again after walking over from our room. As you can tell from the windshield (below) it would have taken about an hour for us to be able to see. It was a rather invigerating walk seeing as it was 18 degrees. The hot chocolate is warming me up again so that we can walk back.

It did snow, but not as much as what I thought it would, but then we have not gone up into the passes yet either. We will drive up Rabbit Ears pass this afternoon and see what it looks like.
The mountain above did not have any snow on it the first day we drove up to Steamboat Lake so the higher places did get quite a bit of snow. The pic below shows the snow on the top of Buffalo pass and that was before the snow came down in Steamboat Springs and it made me pretty nervous driving through that so I can't even imagine what it must look like now.

The barn below looks like it is in the middle of nowhere, but it is just across the street from where we are staying. They are trying to preserve it. I took lots of pictures of the barns in the area, they are so neat looking, even the ones that are falling apart.
Well this will be the last blog. We are checking out tomorrow so we are not so rushed to get back home. All in all it was a pretty good trip, but we did miss our camper, but then again I don't think I would want to be in the forest in the snow with it either. Till next time.
