Like me, you'll have to settle for the Catskills.

JimG. said:Amazing! Yes, I'm sales manager for a food prep equipment wholesaler. Mostly food prep equipment like bakery mixers, food choppers, food warmers, soup warmers, coffee makers, etc. Lots of repair parts and accessories too.
And I'm sure you work hard...folks like us who play hard always seem to understand they need to work hard too.
The big difference between us seems to be that you chose to work in an area with reliable natural snow while I have to make due with reliable manmade snow and a little natural.
But not this season...and I just bagged on a trip to northern VT because of the big warmup last weekend, assuming all the tree shots would be flash frozen crap. Would've been a 6 1/2 hour drive each way with my wife and 3 kids, but the time and money commitment didn't seem worth it for groomed trails.
Of course, it's been puking snow up there since Tuesday when I cancelled out.
The noise you hear is my foot kicking myself in the butt.

trust me it is not the JOB keeping me here in Aspen. Please understand that I don't live here to work. I live here to ski, my job just pays the bills!

I thought Aspen only got about 220" of natural snow per year?
lloyd braun said:I can quibble
our average is 300 inches per year. we will exceed that this year if we have not already.
do you not think that is a lot of snow?

Thanks for the kind words. Hopefully, we'll keep skiing on the brain for you throughout the summer too! :beer:Grassi21 said:This forum has kept me interested and excited about the sport all winter and already has me yearning for next season. Thanks!
That's what this forum did for me this past year...now I definitely need therapy...Greg said:Hopefully, we'll keep skiing on the brain for you throughout the summer too! :beer:
