Got to the ski resort and there's practically no snow! It's been a depressing day.

Now is an excellent time to visit Taos Ski Valley. They gottem snow! Fresh alpine powder, a newly renovated ski resort, and an airport with regularly scheduled flights, more or less.

The pipe will accompany me tomorrow.
Strange thing is that in only a few hours away they've about 4 metres.

It's still busy and hectic, but not bad these days. It's actually fun most of the time.
When they were younger it was pretty intense trying to keep everything together.

Whew! Sounds like a heck of a time. I do well just to take care of the 6 month old while my wife's getting her hair done.

Been a good day. Had burgers at the in-laws' house. Came home and napped with the rest of the family, then took the baby to my mom's & had ice cream with my wife.
Hope everyone else had a pleasant day.
Cheers all, JD

I really appreciate that. Lots of times, it's hard jumping into a crowd that's known each other for a long time, but The Patch has been very welcoming.

Never had that pleasure but I did rent an Alfa Romeo Spyder once in California. Spent the afternoon cruising Mt. Tamalpais. Picked up a blond teenage girl hitchhiking. She had the improbable name of "Summer Twist" and lived up to it. Turned out I knew her dad, though.
