I admit it, I am impatient to get to a happy healthy economy, again. I am ready to STOP this constant negative thinking, speaking, and behavior by the entire Crowd...it is getting old. So, let's think about the good things in life....hmmm, living in the Vail Valley what is one of "those good things"? OK, it is a bit of a set-up, the easy answer is ski season!!!
Aren't we all ready for some good healthy winter fun? I consider that snow boarding, while others may consider it skiing. Whatever your mode of transportation on the mountain, it is time for snow, snow, snow and more snow. And, those of us living in the Vail Valley are watching the weather. We have www.weather.com saved as a favorite web-site. Or we have the app on our cell phones, or we have it as our home page. And, we watch the weather on television and read about it in the local newspaper. However we follow it, or perhaps track the weather, we all have one thing in mind...when is our next snow storm? We are ready...we want a HUGE storm to bring us that exciting early season snow. It's called snow fever and many of us are ready and waiting. It is time to "hit the hill".
My board is waxed, my ski gear is packed in my pack as are my boots, so Mother Nature, hear my call...it is time, my mantra is "send snow, send snow, send snow, send snow, send snow, send snow, send snow...."
