The “Annual Guys Ski Trip”.
This year was quite unplanned compared to our usual trips. With both Chip and I wondering what the job market would bring us, we didn’t really want to go too far.
So… Summit county it was. We rented a nice condo in the “Bill’s Ranch” area of Frisco, that would allow us get to many different ski areas, and bring Drew (Chip’s son) with us this year.
South Lake Tahoe, close to Heavenly Valley and the casinos of South Shore, which means that we have to get our tired butts off the couch and go play at least once or twice this year.
As always, the future of Skiapooloza rests solely on the shoulders of some men who are getting more senile and creaky (that’s creaky, not cranky) by the year. We have lofty aspirations, and will always be able to ski the way we did when we were 25, to be on that first chair of the day, and on the last chair of the day.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more confusing….Mr. Hugh “Crash” Herndon will be joining us on our trip. He gets into town on Friday and leaves Wed morning. Whether he’ll ski the entire time or spend a good portion of it in ER or the coffee shop w/ his butt in a sling, only time will tell.Drew Bear will be joining us as well.
Wildernest: I have TWO condos. One condo is owned by a friend of mine, who’s letting me have it for the weekend for $100. It’s near where we were last year, Treehouse condos. The problem is… their Rec Ctr burned to the ground and there is NO hot tub or swim pool! Sooooooo, I got another condo up the road 1/2 mile that has 3 beds AND a HOT TUB (or two!)
