Vicki are you out of ice cream too? 
Since you reminded me haha, am going to just use the 2 syrups and pour a bit of milk on it. I deserve it today after all my street exercising.

No ice cream in the house at the moment. That's probably for the best! 
Oh WOW!
Downtown Steamboat, as a friend of mine who's been in town since the 70's said, "it looks like 1974". I was able to stand in the road to take this. The road traffic isn't always as slow as this but you can walk up and down Main Street and maybe see one or 2 other people.
Mmmmm coffee beans. Cover them with dark chocolate, eh?
went for a little walk as winter turns to spring...
That is about as clear as I have seen the air over the valley.
Got a demo sale email today from One Stop. It was good to hear from them. I hope the shops and restaurants can survive this economic nightmare.
We read the Pilot e-edition here in NJ to keep tabs on the town, and feel for the struggles Steamboat and all the mountain towns are going through.
its going to be very tough for those shops and of course, the unemployment skyrocketed like a lot of other places. Not sure how One Stop can sell demo ski's. they are not an essential store so they are supposed to be closed. We (and a lot of others) order take out a couple times a week to try to help. They lost 3 weeks of prime tourist season sales.
The photo above is from 3/12/20, since then we have had feet of snow, not sure how much, but probably a record for April. It has not gone to waste.
Looks like the wildlife is enjoying as well
Baby Tahoe yesterday.
the sky was so incredibly blue today. It has to be from the drop in pollution. 'this from about 5 miles south of steamboat. the ski mountain is the highest peak
Glad you are out and about Ron. We were out walking along the rail line I the high desert today and I also noticed that. Skies here tend to be azure anyhow but particularly so today...even though it is windy.
Visited an open space preserve Wednesday and Thursday where recent rains were heavier. The serpentine geology is now exploding with wildflowers. The 40 day February dry spell stunted usual alien grasses so our native species are not so far down inside grasses that they cannot be easily seen. I'll be back next Tuesday when the sun returns with light breezes.

The Japanese Magnolia behind my house. It snowed yesterday morning on buds about to open. This is it seen through a wet window.
