Will do, Jimmy. How are you faring in your part of the world, weather-wise? We just got back from Montana, and there is flooding in many places already, and the serious run-off hasn't even begun yet.
It was a cool and rainy spring with a lot of late snow in the high country (all at over 200% of normal snow--pack), so all of that still has to come down, and it will when it does... Driving past the Bighorn Mountains by Sheridan WY yesterday afternoon we could see back to the 2nd range and they were still white with snow like mid-winter, and they should be pretty much clear by now. Not a good forecast for flooding. But the drive was simply gorgeous, with the foot-hill green and wildflowers srarting to bloom. Postcard-stuff. The peak portion of the Going to the Sun road in Glacier National Park is still closed due to snow and plowing, plus the danger of avalanches. This is June, when they normally have it open. I heard from an insider that they may not get it open at all this year. http://www.nps.gov/applications/glac/roadstatus/roadstatus.cfm Scarey fires in Arizona too. Any VFBers affected by those?
