100 Days Slope Celebration
It’s always fun when a ski/snowboard resort announces their 100th day of operations. Some resorts used to offer $1 lift tickets on the 100th day.

It’s Raining Again
At least is was on January 13 when I started writing this. I have never seen anything quite like this in my east-coast US life. There just isn’t snow here in our winter this year. But you know what? If ever there was to be a year of warmer climes, this year would get my […]
