3 day get away
« on: February 23, 2008, 08:03:37 am »
THought it was worthy of posting again....heck, anyone out there is welcome....can we do this?

You know guys...there's still plenty of ski season left.

How's about a long weekend trip someplace in the east...arrive Thursday, ski Frid, Sat and Sun....get 3 days of skiing....nice!

Fly into Buffalo and I'll pick you all up and we can hit up Holiday Valley....

Or....I love Okemo....fun mountain, lots of terrain....Ron and Jim,  you could fly up to Rochester and drive up with me. Lynn, not sure how close it is for you but can't be that far by car.

Pick one...it's just about scheduling.

Love to ski with everyone again.

Gar

Hi Gary
I will check my march schedule. Not many weekends unaccounted for and my march schedule was finalized several weeks ago.
April will probably be too late/warm.

Lets keep this thought for next year! A later season weekend would be great. I also like Okemo.

Gary:

Just got back from weekend in Pensacola with grandkids (ages 5 and 2 going on 15).? I too like the idea, but need a bit of lead time for scheduling.? Lynn's suggestion makes sense for me as well.? (Plus our President had emergency bypass surgery a couple of weeks ago so short term scheduling flexibility has changed).

PS (the prevailing type of joke from the weekend, my response in red, there was no limit to how funny they found this)

Folks, think Utah! Cheap flights and just as long to fly as to drive, no ice!  There should be plenty of good skiing into May and June.............

Ok. Ron...plenty yes....I'm in if time frames work out.

Jim and Lynn....sounds good prescheduling 2 trips next season. Miss making turns with you guys.

Heading for Deer Valley Friday for 4 days skiing....Alice, me and 2 friends from Chicago. Then, Mar 14-21st to visit Ed at his condo on the mountain at Whistler....still one bed open there  if any Real Skier needs a quick get away.

It's been a wonderful season so far to date...wishing best to all,
Gary
