down and out in Sun Valley 01-29-2006

I was planning to be in Jackson today, but after looking at the conditions in Sun Valley and the upcoming forecast, I changed my mind. They had 7 inches of snow yesterday and have 8-10 inches forecast by end of day tomorrow.

I woke up early, the owner of the lodge offered to drive me up to the mountain. My back was a little sore. I stretched. I ate and my back hurt a little more. I got dressed and it hurt more. After a few more minutes, I decided to take the day off.

Bad news is I miss a day of fresh snow. Good news, it is sunny and clear and it is sunday which means crowds.

So I’ll spend the day catching up on some reading, doing postcards and exploring Ketchum.

Anybody want a souvenir?
