    Internet Access in Lake Tahoe

    I'm sick of no snow around here so I'm going to Tahoe. :) Anyway, my buddy must have Internet access. The hotel we're staying at does not offer it. I was just there in April but I wasn't looking for Internet Cafes. Just wondering if any of you know of a place where my buddy can hook in every...

    Heavenly and Kirkwood 4/05

    Well, just got back from the Lake Tahoe area. What a great year for skiing out there! They've had so much snow the resorts could easily stay open for another couple of months. They close them down because the folks from Northern CA don't come out this late in the year. Anyway, my wife and I...

    Last hurrah...

    Well, it's not the Northeast but I'm about to have my last hurrah for the season. I'm headed to the airport to hit the slopes in Colorado. Loveland has been getting a lot of snow over the last week so I'm hopeful of good conditions there. Other than that I'm not sure where else we'll ski...
