Re: Ye Olde Killington

Pres Smith is still alive in Florida. All you zoners that are unhappy with his decisions that he made over the decades need to let him know you are dissatisfied. Personally I thank him for building an amazing playground every time that I see him.

Re: How many days have you skied in your life?

1392 Killington days in my last decade of 100 club years. About 1100 days before making my total just short 2500 lifetime days. Looking to rack up another 2500 days before I hang up the skis for good.

Re: Killington (Pico) brewfest... insanity

Wife pulled the trigger on two VIP tickets. Some traditions like kicking off the ski season with the fest are too good to die.

Re: Science Rant, Not politics: Can CO2 cause "Climate Change?"

Skipped putting in the window A/C units again this summer. Get away with it about half the time over the past 20 years of living in the mountains. Putting this year on the cooler side but I'm sure there is a chart showing it hotter than ever.

Re: New lodge update

The manhole and Gondi lift pole will preserve the slog for future Killington generations. Shaving off the barren knoll did not happen. Love the daily exercise workout I get from the skate.

Re: Can the Republican Party Be Saved?

I think there are a lot of boomers out there who could retire any time they want, but choose to keep working because they like doing it. Agree. Most boomers I know could comfortably retire at any point in their late 50s. Fully agree that skiing boomers should retire early so they have a more years ...
