Its not about paying to ski, but about doing anything that do could damage until her eyes have healed from the surgery

Got it. I thought it healed in a few days. Kinda like this vasectomy I need to get someday. It will really disrupt skiing and mountain biking... :razz:

I count three "first chairs" so far. :lol: BTW, we're finally under a winter storm warning:

...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 4 PM THIS AFTERNOON TO
12 PM EST SUNDAY...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN ALBANY HAS ISSUED A WINTER STORM
WARNING FOR HEAVY SNOW...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 4 PM THIS
AFTERNOON TO 12 PM EST SUNDAY. THE WINTER STORM WATCH IS NO LONGER
IN EFFECT.

HEAVY SNOW WILL FALL ACROSS THE EASTERN CATSKILLS...MID HUDSON
VALLEY...TACONICS...BERKSHIRES AND LITCHFIELD HILLS FROM LATE
THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING.

TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATION OF 6 TO 12 INCHES IS EXPECTED...WITH THE
HEAVIEST AMOUNTS ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE EASTERN
CATSKILLS...TACONICS AND BERKSHIRES.

SNOW WILL DEVELOP BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR EARLY THIS EVENING.
THE SNOW WILL BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES TONIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY
MORNING. THE SNOW MAY MIX WITH SOME SLEET LATE ACROSS SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE MID HUDSON VALLEY AND LITCHFIELD COUNTY OVERNIGHT.
THE SNOW WILL TAPER OFF LATE SUNDAY MORNING.

THE SNOW WILL RESULT FROM A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT IS FORECAST
TO TRACK FROM THE OHIO VALLEY TODAY...THROUGH PENNSYLVANIA AND
NEW JERSEY TONIGHT...TO A POSITION NEAR CAPE COD SUNDAY MORNING.
THE STORM WILL THEN RAPIDLY MOVE FARTHER OFF THE COAST...BRUSHING
THE CANADIAN MARITIMES SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

A WINTER STORM WARNING MEANS SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF SNOW...
SLEET...AND ICE ARE EXPECTED OR OCCURRING. STRONG WINDS ARE ALSO
POSSIBLE. THIS WILL MAKE TRAVEL VERY HAZARDOUS OR IMPOSSIBLE.

Hinting at some sleet mixing in, but I'm not too concerned. They alluded to that the past few snow events and it never happened at Sundown. If we get anywhere close to that foot mark, there will be a lot of exploring to do... :snow:

Margie might come- just gonna strap on some heavy duty goggles and stick to cruising. Maybe I'll just hang out and film you fools- who knows? Just know I'm getting really cabin feverish sitting around the house with this big dump coming.
