*  Partying on the deck at MC South with friends Super G, Scott, Donnie & daughter, continues following  great day of skiing.

 

*  Today, March 1st on our 72nd day of skiing this season (witch matches our total for last ski season) Buffy organized a pre-birthday celebration on the deck at the South Mountain Creek Lodge that included many of our friends we ski with everyday.  Sunday is John's real birthday, March 2nd, and we hope to make it another great day on the slope for day 74.  And the Buffy cake was delicious.  We are blessed!

*  Half the fun of skiing is the friends you meet and have fun with on the snow and socializing on the deck of the lodge with an adult beverage or two after a fun day of skiing.  Today, January 6th was one of those days - skiing with our ski buddies Ed and Kenny.  Let the party continue!
