We’ve had some snow and the crew has gone wild. Thursday we buried ourselves in the Beaver….. The Beaver Creek moto is “Not exactly roughing it” and I think it rings pretty true. Our day at the Beaver started with … Continue reading
I needed an excuse to post some pics so I’m doing a pre-Tuesday post. This weekend, as part of my studies, I’m spending 2 days ice climbing and I really hope I don’t get an ‘F’. Here is the grading scale … Continue reading
The Hutchinson’s are back in town and before it gets too cold I thought we’d go on a mission…. actually I needed a hand to get this mission accomplished and they were the first willing participants. No real rush to … Continue reading
