You will also find that as your kids age, you and the wife together or separate have chances for weekend getaways. Plus, its dad time, or guys weekend at my house, when she is gone. And guys weekend with friends when its my turn. When my kids were little neither one of us went on many trips like that. Now i get 3-4 guy trip weekends a year, which is all I need or can take.

nice. with family? This is costing a buttload, but we haven't been and may not be able to go again. I just hope my kids have fun so it's worth it. Never been to that mountain, but heard it was a little easier than Vail and definitely more kid friendly.

My brother and a bunch of his friends and neighbors families are going. My son doesn't have break for another couple weeks. I am just going to crash of the couch of the condo they are sharing with another family.

Just got back from Snowshoe. It was AWESOME!!! Great skiing, fresh powder & sunny skies. I love ski tracker app. We did over 20 runs each day (there for 2) & had over 20 miles each day with Skiing Elevation of 18000 ft. I reached a high speed of 50.3 mph. My favorite trail ever is Cupp Run & Upper Shays Revenge. I cant wait to go back!!!!

LOL. You need to tell my kid that. Anxious to give these new one's a shot. I got the bindings adjusted for my boots. They just fit in the the last notch. I need some poles now. I went to Ober last week and thought I could just go through the line and grab some but they noticed my hipness and asked if I rented those skis from them and I said no. BUSTED. They said you'll have to rent them then. $12 (half the cost of the whole ski package) and had to go through the freakin' line again.
