Re: As baby boomers leave the ski slopes....
now 65, I gave up skiing about 6 years ago when my wife and I bought a house in ft Lauderdale. No more trips to Kton or out west. winters in fla, Nov-April. I miss the skiing, but other interests in Florida still make the winters fun.

Re: Large condo fire in Killington
not many posts from me in the last few years. I'm a snowbird now, not in Snowbird. My ski club has a house in Mendon that sleeps about 50-55. In 1988, I was president and the club was inspected by the local fire marshall for violations and code upgrades. Other clubs in the area also were inspected. ...

Re: Peak drink special to die for
It's been a long time since I posted here, but that photo is more than worth a comment. I drank lots of Long Trails at the Peak with SS, but a Bloody with shrimp at the top on a Sunday morning with a fresh drop of snow? Got me wanting to come back up. I turned into a snowbird so I'd need to sell my ...

Re: Music in the Moguls
Winter of 76 and I was working at Hunter Mt bartending. I carried a Panasonic portable cassette recorder in a backpack with some lightweight Sennheiser headphones plugged into the tapedeck. Sounded great, phones fit OK under my ski hat, accessibility was limited, but it was worth it to ski with some...

Re: Snow in Florida
I haven't been around in a while, so posting about florida snow makes sense to ski in on. Orlando is forecasting early morning flurries as a r*in system moves out, followed closely by the latest cold front coming down the Mississippi. Food concessions at the WDW/Universal parks look like KBase or Pi...

Re: British Actress Natasha Richardson is in critical condition
Just heard on Fox, she's been declared brain dead and is being flown back to NYC where she will be taken off life support.
Sympathies to her family. Really sucks

Thanks, Mrs G for the reports. I haven't been up and my club's house has been pretty dead too. Hopefully I'll be a regular Mon-Thu for the 2nd half of the season. Heading out to LA for a trade show Wed-Mon. Skiis are ready to go. Save me some powder. Shortski don't drink all the Long Trails at the P...

Big Kahuna Playing bass lines and melody on a guitar can be done by one person. Alternating bass, Travis style picking, hybrid picking (think Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, Danny Gatton) are three styles. It's not as full sounding as a piano, but it's two different instruments. Tuck Andress is a jazz pl...
