Howdy Skiers and Boarders,
We had a leeeeetle snow yesterday, nothing to really stick at the base, but on top might hang around. Basically, it was just priming the pump, making sure the 'ol storm system works. Good news, it does. Had my first real winter driving last night, getting used to the car moving all over the place. As usual, people were flying off into the ditches. EZ does it in the early season...by the end of the season I'm flying down the road at 80+ (allegedly) without a care in the world.
Just a quick note that my day job requires me to be out of town until Nov 21, so no preseason reports until then. Hopefully when I return, there will be some white stuff on the ground and we'll be only 8 days out from Opening Day, so I'll catch up with you then.
Think snow.
