We are suppose to head out to Granby a little later today to move and recover a Connelly Azteca pool table. This trip would entail us getting over Berthoud Pass in this artic cold weather. With it already snowy and ice packed on the roads, is it worth it? Do we reschedule? Is a high of -4,in Denver and -10 in Granby, for the day worth risking a long drive through the mountains over a nasty mountain pass? Probably not and we shall see how the day plays out. As of 5:20am on February the 1st 2011 there is no closure of Berthoud Pass but the online cameras show the roads are snowy and ice packed. This could mean trouble. Lots of trouble. Too much trouble for even the 4wd truck we use that typically will get us through anything. I think a reschedule is in order. Nobody should be outside today with temperatures like this. Esspecially to move a pool table.
As of 8:00am we have cancelled this job to Granby. Albeit, we now have an irritated and upset customer. We can't resonably be expected to move a 900 pound pool table in temperatures that dip into -25 with wind chills and a snowy mountain city. This just isn't safe for the customers table nor our technicians.
It's now half past 8 in the morning and this job has been rescheduled for tomorrow. We are leaving around 6am tomorrow to trek out to Granby and move this pool table. Part 2 will have more tomorrow.
