100 DAYS. That was it. Our Summer season in Jackson Wyoming was apparently only good for 100 DAYS. It all started Yesterday afternoon. I was at work (I work at the front desk of a hotel in Teton Village) and I looked out of the front entrance windows. Expecting to see clouds and rain.... instead I found clouds and fog and SNOW.
We just got out of a record breaking winter season. For the first time in history the entire mountain opened on opening day of ski season.
It was still snowing here in June.
Now, don't get me wrong here.... I was never expecting an overly long Fall. A long Fall at all was really never an expectation.
It has only been Fall for about two weeks though.
The leaves have not even all fallen off the trees.
Gold, Green, and White is more depressing than beautiful to me.
When it snows, the world seems shorter. In the mountain valley in particular. The clouds just sit on the tops of our heads. One does not have to go very far at all to touch them.

And then the morning came..... and I woke up to this.....
While pretty... in October, again, this is just depressing to me.
I was desperately hoping to get out of Jackson before the snow season started.
EPIC FAIL
It is kind of quaint though..... If I really think about it.... admittedly.... and mostly grudgingly.
