Will be in Durango CO, so hopefully I'll get to hit up Wolf Creek or maybe DMR. Silverton would be sweet, but it's too early in the season. Not interested in the packing crew when I have no plans to return this season.

Telluride is within daytrip range of Durango as well..I almost moved to Durango college with an ex..

I'm getting psyched about the Thanksgiving weekend. On Wednesday my sister and brother in law are coming to town and I'm going to have them and a few friends over at my place for a few cocktails..then there's going to be some serious bar hopping. On turkey day I'm gonna sleep hella late..probably until 9AM...lol..maybe I'll get a turkey hoagie from WaWa...I had initially planned to go to Vermont on Black Friday but since Blue is opening..I can't miss out on opening day..they that night my family is going to get Japanese food. Saturday I'll drive up to Vermont and I'm skiing on Sunday and Monday. I need to decide whether I want to ski northern or southern Vermont..it depends what happens with this storm. If Stowe and Sugarbush get dumped on..then that's where I'll head..otherwise..I'll ski Killington southward..

I'll be heading up to SR early Friday morning with my gf, meeting my buddy up there, a couple more friends coming up Friday night. Should be a fun weekend. It's going to rock.

Thanksgiving Day work at the old hotel job, Friday work, weekend either relaxing or skiing somewhere if the terrain options warrant the ticket price and drive to get there. Hoping that maybe Wildcat will be open on that Sunday. The 29th is supposed to be opening day...we'll see.

Friday work

Saturday ski Waterville, check into the Cannon Mountain View and see the Nate Wilson Group at the bar there that night :beer: x 15 or so

Sunday sleep in late at the motel, head home and watch football.

I'll be going to Belleayre's opening day on Friday, looking at their website they will have a fair amount of terrain open, should be a blast. Probably won't be that crowded I would imagine.

Plans still holding steady: Mt Snow: Black Friday, then again on Sunday.

Turkey, family, football on Thursday, probably a few runs at Wachusett to take advantage of my free pass there on Friday, then repeat stage one for the wife's half of the family on Saturday as well as finish the leaves, put away the grill, etc. I'm hoping though this rain doesn't crimp my 'Chusett plans. If that's the case, I might have to drive further north for the day.

Next weekend begins in earnest with a coupla days at Wildcat.

Heading up to bethel weds. afternoon. Skiing SR on T-day morning, eating some bird, drinking some beers. I'll ski SR again Friday with my girlfriend and then either stay at SR Sat, go to K-mart or head home and do some MTBing in MA.

Probably buying some new gear too.

You can see my attire in the TR I did. Or just look for Melissa's leopard hat. :)
