A very uneventful night at a roadside motel in Billings, Montana, but a very exciting one for a 19 year old girl named Jennifer.

“I can’t wait for tomorrow! Skiing down the slopes of Beartooth Mountain will be so fun, I bet I’ll be the best skier there!” Jennifer says excitedly talking to her mother on the phone.

“Ohh I bet you will be too honey, but be careful, I have heard it is pretty dangerous skiing on Beartooth especially with so many people that will be on it tomorrow with the perfect amount of snow and—

“Don’t worry mom, I will be just fine. I will be back in one piece when I come back to Idaho with you. Miss you already, goodnight.”

“Goodnight sweetheart.”

And with that, Jennifer ends the call with her mother. Since she is so excited, she has a hard time falling asleep but eventually tiring herself with all the excitement finally falling asleep…

The next morning, Jennifer awakes with a start, wondering what the loud banging is. Soon, she hears men talking downstairs,

“Dang it! The door’s stuck. It must have snowed a crap ton for the door to not be able to open!”

Eventually, more banging came from downstairs. Jennifer climbed out of her bed, got out of her room, and walked down the stairs to the entrance where two men stood.

“Hey, what’s going on, I’m trying to get good rest here!”

“Ma’am, the door’s stuck. Now if you plan on getting out of here anytime soon, that’s gonna have to wait. If you wanna find out why the door is stuck, then go to the window over there and see for yourself.”

As Jennifer walked over to the window, she immediately noticed some snow…but wait…she couldn’t believe it! It was so much snow that she couldn’t even see anything BUT snow.

“Holy crap!” She exclaimed, almost waking the whole entire motel, “how did it snow this much just last night!”

One of the men did a slight shrug and continued to try and pry the door open. Pretty soon, all the residents of the motel were climbing down the stairs one by one, coming to see what was going on. Many shocked faces roamed the entrance as each face peered out the window.

“Hmm…so I called the snowblower and they are on the job, but other than that, we just have to wait so everybody please do not take this into huge concern.” One of the men informs all the worried people.

“How long will this take?” Jennifer asks worriedly.

“About 4-6 hours depending on how fast they get here. But it could take all day, who knows.”

“ALL DAY?! I won’t be able to go skiing. Let alone, get to Idaho!”

Jennifer’s hopes sank to the bottom that she wouldn’t be able to go skiing. This trip to Billings, Montana did NOT go as planned for Jennifer who has to wait in a motel all day…with many other residents that had other plans as well.
