At least this year you can delegate to the peons. :lol:

Yeah really. Can't you just take off for a few runs here and there to sample the product or something? You're a big shot there now, after all...

here, let me translate that for you.

We dont have a %()$in clue as to what is going to happen so lets just throw out every possibility and put times in there to make it sound professional.

Sounds about right.

One of the local news channels did actually admit last night that there were a lot of variables this week in the weather and that they couldn't reliably predict what would be happening. :lol: Like that's any different than any other day. :roll:

The good news is that if we end up being on for Wed night, my parents have agreed to watch the kids so I can go for a couple of hours and join you guys. :D

Awesome! If it's game on I'll be there, possibly w/ Timmy in tow.

Thursday is a no go for me. I'm trading Thurs for a Saturday with one of my buds from Boston.

Bummer. I'm leaning towards Thursday to enjoy the powder at this point.

The forecasts that I've been seeing say we'll have some rain this morning and maybe a little through the day, but tonight should be clear.

That's good to hear. I'm not concerned with skiing in less than ideal conditions- just worried about the drive home :(

Watched the weather this morning and they're calling for rain to stop in the morning. It will be warm today - around 46 degrees. Should be some soft snow tonight. But no precip.

I kind of wish I could go tomorrow instead. They're calling for 3-6" snow in the afternoon. But my parents won't watch the kids tomorrow so I have to take what I can get. :D

Hope to see you tonight, Randi! Do you want to set up a meeting place and time?
