Sunday was a wickedly cold and windy day. Remember how I posted that we got in the hot tub on Saturday night, and I was all proud for walking barefoot in the snow? While Bobby and I were in the hot tub, we were talking about what we thought the temperature was and whether this was the coldest weather in which we'd ever been in a hot tub. "Oh, it's

The soup is complimentary, and pretty much everyone gathers in the common room at 4 o'clock or so to thaw out with a cup (or in my case, to just eat it because I'm hungry and love soup). Sunday, it was black bean soup. Bobby and I were eating soup and debating where we wanted to go for supper.
I love hotels with random free food. It's not necessarily that it's a bargain, but that the decision-making is removed. Soup in the winter in the mountains sounds amazing to me also.

I'm too old to ski now, I suspect I'd break into 1000's of pieces with a minor wipe-out, so I'll just enjoy vicariously.
The goldens with the board is a great pic! Love your soft land shark too.
Sounds like it was a terrific time for both of you with plenty of time to relax on your end and lots of exercise in the cold for Bobby. Along with great food and ale. What more could you want? Welcome back home and thanks for sharing!

It is apparently considered the East Coast's most technical mountain. We're at Liberty now (Bobby took leave today; my school was closed due to a burst water pipe), and I hope its mere thousandish-foot drop is not too anticlimactic for him!

It's supposed to be relatively hard to learn snowboarding compared to skiing, but if you were good at skateboarding, you probably would have been good at snowboarding too. Bobby only tried skiing once but was good at that too: lots of years of playing hockey! Whereas my freestyle rollerskating translated far less easily.

I'm also most impressed with your barefoot-snow-walking! :o)

Thank you! Most of the pretty pictures are Bobby's fault; the places he goes tend to have really good views. :)
