 OC Road & Bridge:  "CR361 will reopen for the weekend.  Significant progress was made and it was determined the culvert at Senator Gulch will not suffer a failure.  CR361 will close again on Monday for further repairs.  Closures may happen over the weekend if flooding continues."

... (drum roll) two and a half inches!  Dodged that no-October-snow bullet.  There's another storm setting up Saturday night through Wednesday, hoping for more snow.  In the meantime, Mike and I were out yesterday morning and found all these animal tracks - so exciting. Mouse or chipmunk? Turkeys! Foxes!

Winter Storm Watch!

 I've been waiting and waiting for snow, and our first possibility is coming.  We are under a winter storm watch from Friday noon until Sunday noon.  I saw an outlier forecast for 21 inches on Sneffels.  There haven't been any accumulation numbers posted, except that and possibly 17 in Silverton.  I looked back the last couple of years, and our first measurable snowfalls:  October 12, 2021; October 24, 2022; October 28, 2023. I hope most of you got up to MFL and environs to see the fall foliage.  It has been a spectacular year.

View south from Ridgway physical therapy office Barb has let me know that Sandy and Larry's house is standing but damaged.  Larry has been wiping down the walls with bleach, and Sandy is lamenting the destruction of all their landscaping.  I've never been through a hurricane, but I imagine it's much like the tornadoes I experienced growing up in Kansas, just without storm surges. Marchelle and Aaron's septic system is moving a...
