| Fred,
I suffered a real tease yesterday.
I flew from MEM to SLC (where there was no snow, but a nasty climactic inversion that obliterates the otherwise-gorgeous views), and we then retired to the mountains for dinner. We drove up to Solitude and had our dinner there (great service, poor wine list). We had some 3' of snow at the parking lot and obviously more snow up the mountain, but I had to leave before strapping on the slats.
Twenty four hours later, I'm back in Memphis. I never did get a chance to ski, but I'm starting to develop a real need to do so. Aaaarrrggghhh! I'll hit the slopes sooner or later!
A frustrated ski nut,
Steve | | Cheers, y'all | |
