This is the very first time I have ever seen snowflakes dancing all across the weather report. NOAA is now teasing us with a chance of 8 to 17 inches of snow over the next few days.
The mountain just had 10 to 12+ inches of rain from the last storm – 12.6 on Birch Hill. (Thank you Will Parent!). So, the grades have been closed several times because of downed trees, mud slides, huge boulders and rocks blocking the road.
We all have our stories… It took us 2 hours to get from the top of the mountain to Valentine Dinner in Pauma Valley last night – normally 30 minutes. But, oh, so worth it! 🙂 Take care out there and remember your tire chains over the next few days.
For those of you just dreaming of a place of your own on Palomar, we have some to choose from now, and several more that will be coming your way real soon.
Meanwhile, the ‘Treasures’ of ours, oh, you know, our next door grandkids, are really looking forward to more sledding opportunities. Hope you can come join us real soon!
