Too bad if you spent those three minutes riding the lift :-( Around here, that window happens around 10:00 am. -- Cheers, Bev ================================================== ================ "Don't sweat it -- it's not real life.

Yeah...if you're well-informed and you can time it right, spring skiing can be a euphoric experience. You gotta know what the snowpack is like, when the sun hits that particular hill, etc. Spring is when Eastern LoudPowder turns into wonderful little ball-bearings for a time, and then into heavyweight mashed potatoes. It's all in the timing. -- :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::: Mary Malmros Some days you're the windshield, Other days you're the bug. |
