Self portrait of Jake in 30" of snow!

Jake went to Alta Ski Area in Utah with his buddy Jamie. They left here at midnight on Tuesday night (2 weeks ago) and arrived at Alta at 7am. They had 30 inches of fresh snow to ski!!! Then Little Cottonwood Pass closed so they couldn't get down into town to stay with one of Jamie's friends. They had to get a room at Alta instead. When they woke up in the morning Thursday, they were interlodged! They lock all the doors of the hotel with big chains and bolts because they are bombing for avalanches outside and you can't go outside until they are done. Anyway, the Pass was still not open when they went back to ski that morning so there was only about 40 other people skiing with them that day. Jake said they had another 12 inches that morning and it was like having the entire ski area to themselves. They had a good time!

More cousins visit!!!

My cousin Susie and her husband Bob surprized me last weekend so I met them at Loveland Ski Area for a afternoon of skiing. Bob and I hit the steeps while Susie skiied with Bob's neice. Susie and Bob

My cousin Katie (Kramer) and her boyfriend Tyler came to visit last weekend. We skiied at Keystone and ABasin and ice skated. I wish Katie could give me a weekly skating lesson. I will be practicing what she taught me. We had a lot of fun and it was good to have family here.
