Things are pretty slow here, everybody must be on the slopes

Getting tired of Scotty's rants on the other site, but not seeing much
skiing info here so hope everyone is out on the slopes.

I just got back from the second of two consecutive long weekends up
north - yesterday made it 9 out of past 12 days on skis. It's almost
like being one of those retired geezers. And the truly amazing thing
was that 5 of the 9 days were sunny blue skies - highly unusual for the
lake effect area.

Hope everyone else is getting in their allotment of turns. Remember you
only get about 80 trips around the sun, don't let this one go to waste.

Only got 18 days in February - don't know how I wasted the other 10.
The apres ski brews were uniformly excellent.

Did you get my email that a friend of mine
was heading in your direction? I can't
remember if John was one of the crew that
skied with Walt when he was here last year.
Oh, yeah, the dude coming your way is John.

Got your email - if he's in neighborhood he's being treated to 30 inches
of fresh California moderate; not cement, but not Utah fluff either.
We're enjoying it.

I haven't heard from him yet, but life is long...

I don't remember either... we spent a fair amount of time skiing with
one other guy who's name escapes me. As I recall, you stole his jacket
at lunch if that's any help. You took his radio along with the jacket,
and since you still had your own radio it made for some horrendeous
feedback in the gondola whenever you tried to talk on it.

The season is winding down here - all the snow's gone from the driveway,
and the XC season seems to be over. My hill still has 5 or 6 feet of
base, so they'll be good for another month. This Saturday we start
sailing, although I'm torn between going skiing on getting the out in a
boat.
