Congratulations, Laurie. You're a real risk taker -- er, I mean trooper. It sounds like you had a lot of fun. Thanks for the gorgeous photos.

Wonderful article Laurie - I'm so glad you all decided to go. There's nothing quite like it and it's great for the family too.
I bet you are already planning your next trip!
cheers Leslie -

My wife and I miss living in Colorado and skiing daily, it's so relaxing and fun. Glad you had the chance to go.

Thanks, everybody! And Ray, once you've lived in Colorado, it's in your blood. It's where I grew up, and even though California is beautiful, I miss Colorado too!

Laurie - have fun but be careful out there. The usual encouraging comment to a performer - "break a leg" - is not one you want to use in the skiing context.

Laurie,

It sounds like you had a great time and a real adventure! Can we give you a "Brava!" for braving the weather? I'm glad you decided to take a refresher class. For any newbies reading this, it's amazing what just one lesson can do for you.
