We are about to start the delegates meeting. We got three to four inches of new snow last night. It is beautiful to look at and not much fun to drive in. The road from the hotel to the grounds is now called 'the goat trail" which goes uphill (up the mountain) five miles. The hotel is set on the mountainside with balconies overlooking the lake. Awesome! |
