I am now in the Rockies. My life is pretty good right now, busy at work (so busy, in fact, that taking this little vacation is borderline irresponsible), flying weightless, adventurous boy willing to learn to ski rather rather than sitting on the beach in Cabo (which was proposed as an alternative for this weekend)...

Oh yeah, and tons of snow. I've driven into the mountains from Denver several times (three times in the winter, three times in the summer) and I've never seen the snow line nearly as dramatic as this. There is lots of snow out there in them there hills and I intend to ski on it.
