Happy New Year!

After a long drive last Wednesday, we arrived in sunny and virtually snowless Crested Butte. We've spent some time unpacking, played some pond hockey and some rink hockey, went for a gorgeous moonlit snowshoe on New Year's Eve, and rang in the new year with a cross country ski to a cute little yurt in the woods, where we ate brunch and then skied back to our house. 

This afternoon, Craigslist provided the gift of a gently used ping pong table.  Jason has begun showing the family the ways of the ping-pong jedi.

The soft Crested Buttians claimed to be victim to a "wind storm" the other night when the gentle breeze hit 15 mph.  Dorothy, we're not in Nederland any more.

We read in the paper that the ski resort has already used up all of its snowmaking water allotment for the entire season.  Tomorrow we venture to the ski hill in our shorts and t-shirts to see if there are some good groomers to enjoy despite the freak drought.

Happy New Year to all of our friends and family. 

Let it snow. Let it snow. Let it snow!
