Day 2 in Pocatello

Monday the 24th

It rained last night and when we got up it was about 36 degrees out. The clouds covered the sky and threatened to rain. We spent the morning checking weather forecasts for the mountains and listening to the TV talk about snow in Salt Lake City. Eventually I decided that with snow coming down in the pass east of Alpine and temperatures hovering around 28 degrees in Hoback Junction a little further east, that it made more sense to spend another day in Pocatello. Especially as it was forecast to be twenty degrees warmer tomorrow.

With that decision made, I felt so much better that my anxiety level dropped to zero. Diane and Tina wanted to do some shopping so Don and I found a pool hall called Pockets of Pocatello and had the girls drop us off there after lunch. We played for a couple of hours on a 9' table until the girls returned for us. At $4/hr it was a bargain! Oh yeah, we had a good time at the table too!!

The girls bought a couple of new games so after dinner we got them out. The first one was a card game that required too much logic and had very difficult explanation of the rules so we played one round and gave up. The second was Attack Uno, which was fun and we played until ten o'clock when I finally won the game. At that time we decided to call it a day and everybody hit the sack.
