Oh I like that!!! T sits in back but the other half folds down to give us more room.. I’d have to measure to see if it fit.
Thinking of cabins and SUVs.. I wanted to share these photos, the one time when I debated switching to SUV permanently
These are from Carter Caves where I posted photos yesterday.
When we arrived it looked like this-
Later on we were looking at this-
I went to put wood in the fireplace below (cabin provided wood)..
No kindling!!!!!!!!!
Called the lodge- received a message that the entire park would be closed for the next two days.
I went to my car and the only thing I had was T’s art papers from school in a binder in the trunk. We agreed that we should use them to try to get the fire started.
This is the largest flame that we got. Lasted a whopping 1 minute max.
Turned the heat up and played games until bedtime.
The next day the roads were not drivable and as I said, all facilities were closed. We had planned on eating breakfast at the lodge. Instead, we ate left over pizza for breakfast.
The rest of the day we ate snacks, and more pizza. Ventured outside to play in the snow..
The next morning we were almost out of fruit, snacks, and beverages. Lodge was still not open, but I knew we had to go find food in town.
Main Roads were at least somewhat cleared now.. but we saw this before we even got out of the park..
I gripped the steering wheel so tightly while driving 30 minutes to civilization. And by civilization, I mean one restaurant and one gas station exists in this town.
Lessons learned that weekend- Always plan to be snowed in when taking a trip in the hills during the winter.
NEVER rent a cabin if it does not have a gas fireplace.
Only take an AWD vehicle on such a trip.
