January, 2017. Shattered right clavicle and seven fractured ribs, three on the left and four on the right. I definitely ski more conservatively now.

Yeah, I’m just mouthing off. Have a great time. I sort of miss skiing, we’ll actually the ski lodge bar.

There is something about drinking Gran Marnier Coffee and B52 coffees while the snow is falling around your ears. Like being in the womb.

Looks cold and requires I don closed toed shoes instead of my normal flip flops. I’ll pass. I do enjoy hanging out in a lodge watching skiers while indulging in adult beverages.

Sun valley opens thanksgiving morning. They have made enough snow to cover a lot of the runs BUT a big storm is coming Monday and is going (hopefully) to snow hard! I have some new skis and boots to break in, I’ll be there.
