After a night of birthday partying, I was not that keen on getting up at cracker dawn, but then when I realized I got up to go skiing, I quickly woke up!
It’s about a 3 hour drive to get to Big Bear and after a while we got to see snow, so exciting!
Halfway up the hill we started to see smoke coming up and I thought I made a joke saying “oh look, a truck is on fire!” But then the traffic started to move more slowly and eventually came to a complete stop. We were sitting still for two hours, good times! Turned out a car did caught on fire.
We finally made it up the hill, only made it to a half day of skiing, but totally worth it!
