0 miles today. That’s right zero, nada! 

Today was total rest and we spent most of the day looking at this fireplace in the lodge. We picked a great day to take a break since it was rainy and 48 degrees all day. It’s been healthy to give our bodies and brains some downtime. There is a certain amount of stress with getting on the road every morning and staying focused on directions, drivers, weather etc. and we were able to turn that off all day. (thanks to Stuart for the iPhone wide angle lens… slowly getting the learning curve down)

There is still no definitive word about the opening of the pass. Everyone we ask has a different opinion and Maja heard that the Park Service doesn’t like to give advance notice about it because there would be cars lined up from East gate to West gate. We think we can get out Friday or Saturday. The relaxation is wonderful and the park beautiful but we are, for now anyway, creatures of the road!
