I didn’t move to Salt Lake City until I was a half century old. I think that is a good thing. If I would have been younger the temptation to be a ski bum might have been more than I could have withstood. The snow, 456 inches this winter, has settled to 137 inches of base. No wind, warm sunshine, short lift lines. Wow, what a day. Jen and I skied this morning. 27-37 degrees. Right now in my front yard it is 47. (8:21 pm) I could have played golf when we got down this afternoon. If I had younger knees that is.
Utah snow is not a secret though. On the lift we rode with people from Delaware, Boston, England, Pittsburg, Florida, Wisconsin, and one guy from Salt Lake City. And we only skied half of the day. The guy from Delaware was here for the 4th time this season and has 3 more trips planned before the end of April. (a computer business software writer)

Somehow I never thought of you as a "old ski bum". I do remember a galant quarterback that allowed himself to be knocked out in the quest for victory! :-)
