Bush this Wed...day bus trip

[dropKickMurphy]

I just signed up for the (Boston area) Ski Market bus trip to SB for this Wednesday(3/21). The guy told me that it may be cancelled if they don't get a few more people. They'll be making the go/no go call later this afternoon.

Weather forecast calls for snow today and Tuesday, and Wednesday to be 30 degrees and sunny. Then it warms up significantly from Thursday into the weekend.

Thought I might convince a few Boston area AZers to take a sick day on Wednesday. Bus probably won't be full, so there should be room to stretch out a bit and grab some z['s on the way up.

It's not often that all factors converge to give us a perfect ski day in New England. This Wednesday just might be one of them. A mid-week day in late March = no crowds. The quality and quantity of snow should be about as good as it ever gets in NE. Sunny skies, comfortable skiing temps. A ski area that is at or near the top of every "Best in the East" list.

Does this interest anyone in the Boston area who may be reading this from their office or cubicle?

Anyone?

I'm already up here, but give me a shout if you manage to get a group of AZers together and maybe I'll take a few turns with you guys.

This is still so unbelievably tempting though.

The bus for the Dedham SM actually leaves from Wood Road in Braintree at 5:30. It's just off Route 128 behind Dinger Ford. Should be a pretty easy trip from RI at that hour.

I was just told that the final go/no go decision will be made later today, but it's looking good at this point.

hate to say it, but If I go anywhere I think I'm gonna go with a buddy to Jay...he's got 2 for 1 tix & also said he'd drive. Thanks for the thread thought tho.....

Just got the call from Ski Market. Trip cancelled. Between 3 stores, only 15 people signed up.

Bummer, that's too bad. I think I'm taking at least a half day tomorrow to go to Pat's Peak, it's close to my work and have been wanting to check it out. I hope it's worth taking some vacation time for it. I plan on just skiing in the morning, I think snow's usually best then and go into work a little later. Work is wicked slow, so now's a pretty good time to go. Who knows what this weekend will bring with the warm temps.
