Maybe this winter will be better than the last ones, especially for those
wanting to go out boarding around christmas.

Maybe. For a late autumn the snow is already great (winter starts in
december).

We plan to go to the Czech Republic next weekend. Liberec is open since
last weekend, will be open next, 55 cm snow but getting warmer. We hope
and will see.

Sounds nice!

I might be snowboarding in Vermont, USA tomorrow. They have some natural
snow and plenty of machine-made as a base. Not sure how much of either,
but it's quite rideable.

We'll all be feasting on Thursday here in the States for Thanksgiving.
My agenda for the week -- snowboard, feast, drink ale, surf over
weekend, drink more ale. Yes, it will be a good week!
