I’ve decided to not open tomorrow -Saturday January 11, 2025. I had a hard time driving out of the driveway this afternoon. That light fluffy snow kept my tires spinning. I had to make three attempts to drive onto the highway at the north entrance (or exit as it were..) then I backed up and got out onto the highway on the first attempt using the south drive! It was interesting!! Stay safe and I will see you next week starting Wednesday!
