Steamboat Springs

Steamboat Springs is a great town to be stuck in.  First of all they have a free bus system.  We were able to get to Walmart, Safeway, and several other stops quite easily.  Secondly, most of the restaurants downtown have happy hour specials so eating out is more affordable.  I got a large pizza for $5 at dinner and will eat the leftovers for lunch.  The downtown area has everything you need & don't need but one street behind the main drag is where the bike path along the river is.  We have been staying at a great hotel called the Nordic Lodge.  

The owners have been super accommodating and understanding.  The rooms are comfy and clean, the continental breakfast is one of the best I've seen, and they have a pool & hot tub.  So we've had a nice stat but the weather continues to be nasty and I'm beginning to wonder if we will ever get out of Colorado.  On the positive side though if we'd been able to hike out we'd be stuck in Lander over the weekend waiting for the post office to open on Mon.  So... let it pour I guess!
