Driving across the US, our first destination was the Snowy Ridge Mountain Scenic Byway along the borders of Southern Wyoming and Northern Colorado. We'd taken it once before, and it's a spectacular drive high through the mountains. But as we approached, the sky darkened, and it started to rain. At the higher elevations (over 10,000') it was snowing - and not just snowing, but a veritable blizzard. Even so, Bonnie and Owen decided to brave the conditions and venture outside
It got pretty wild, and they were caked in snow in no time, so they came in and dried off, and we went on to Marie Lake. There it was just drizzling, so Peach and Bonnie went out to have a look....
We love this scenic road. It's totally untamed wilderness, and not swarming with tourists - in fact it was pretty much deserted that afternoon, and we only saw two other people actually out of their cars. I had had all kinds of plans for the dolls to be hiking in the wilderness there, but with the snow, drizzle, and then heavy rain, it just wasn't possible.........so maybe next time......
