The friend I was supposed to come here with today twisted her ankle hiking yesterday. Left at 7 got here at 8:38. Was 16 degrees when I arrived. My first time at Keystone, found the free parking and headed up the Peru lift directly behind that lot. Real empty over there and rode the lift alone. Ended up at the bottom of River Run, looked like more of the main base area. Much busier over there. Lift lines not long but a Covid stuff nobody really knew when to go and liftees not directing. So I went back over to Peru. I didn’t track it but I think I only did 5 runs, skiing tomorrow too so I just wanted to get a handful in. It’s kinda boring skiing by yourself. Just got a breakfast sang since the banana I ate on the way here was not cutting it. After I inhale that guess I am heading out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm feeling GREAT about it because I won't have to do shit! I'll be able to sit in my house with my immediate family which is what I've wanted to do for years but not been able to!

I just realized i have a set of Vermont plates in my Garage. Looks like me and TTC6 will be heading to Vermont this winter.

Can I pay you in Blue Bucks?

Tis the skison to Fa La La - even if we can't ski yet. From The Beagles holiday concert last Sunday.

Does it? Besides some reduced socializing, it's been OK. More working from home, more running, more flexibility, great excuse to not socialize with people you don't want to.

a mellow groomer has never looked so appealing

Landscape paintings, mosaics, shadow boxes.

That's *way* too advanced for him.

omg yes the sequel wow i thought it was just feliz navidad, wasn't expecting love@xmastime

Probably not going to happen for me. I’m in contact with a lot of people at work so I don’t want to be the spreader. Plus my wife works at a senior care home so we’re trying to limit exposure. Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think? Sorry, bad Alanis joke

Big Snow.

Sure she could. There might be a ski painting at my work let me see. Just heading in now. Not to tuen this into show and tell but my mom is also the illustrator in my sisters children’s book series. https://www.amazon.com/Royal-Architect-Laura-Slifkin-Venos/dp/1516857836

Take it to the credit card thread. When we went online only for April and May, our online merchant took 2% of total sales. Doesn’t sound like a lot but when profit is 20-25%, it’s noticeable. Build the online fee into profit margin or by service fee and then it’s no problem.

Update:

I’ll chip in $200 to ensure it never happens

Greenbacks not Bluebucks

It was a side hustle that I ran while working full-time. It was pretty fun when it was on E! and worked with some cool clients Sold it in January 2015 to a company in dallas I do some upholstery gigs on the side but nothing formal for now

We can make this work. I'll text Barb. I still have her on the line about you requesting to have the place open for you two weeks ago.

Dont forget about Toast and his magical vocal chords. If Toast sings, i would show up.

Good one only Atomic Jeff wasn’t in Aspen this last season

I'll get together with my wife's parents and my parents (separately), but that's about the extent of my holiday gathering this year. I'm perfectly happy with that. Maybe Blue will care to open and I can even gather with my PASR family in the parking lot (socially distanced of course)

Especially when your last time skiing was in the ridiculously awesome company of JFSkiDan and yours truly.

Enjoy! When I moved to South Carolina my kids were small and I told my wife that we are not running back to PA for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Anyone who wants to see us is welcome to come down anytime. My neighbors who ran back to Michigan, Ohio, PA, Massachusetts, etc. would ask how our holidays were and I would say "Great!". They would bitch about traffic, traveling, relatives, and how frazzled their holidays were.

Not this year mothafucka!! woot!

fuck this just made my day. Much better live. @Ski2Live Live2Ski your quarantine hair is on point 👌

Someone tell red pants guy to take his hands out of his damn pockets. Otherwise pretty solid

It's all good, the 3 former presidents are taking the vaccine publicly so I trust it 100%.

My company uses a merchant services processor and we actually don't use a card reader in the office, but we have the option to if we ever want to hook one up. We could also set it up on our website for customers to make on-demand payments, but that brings up a whole host of cybersecurity considerations that I don't want to open the door to. Right now we just take down card info over the phone and enter it online and its hooked up to our bank account where the batches get settled to every day. Its not too expensive and really easy to set up.

What about one of those metal things with a slider that makes a carbon copy of the card?

When the cases get to 20k are we double secret fucked?

Another good video that was done about the last cast at Bethlehem Steel. I think this is the last one that was been made. My dad sure loves his trains 🤷‍♂️

It won’t pass the senate and will have to be reintroduced later. It’s something. Pretty fucking sad that non violent drug offenders are sitting in jail some not even convicted of a crime just waiting for court.

He’s given you seduction tips??? Reminds me of this song.

This. Is. Awesome!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think Olive is still there.....

I hope a random aunt shows up at your house unannounced.....

hah ... that made me laugh.

@saltyant remember when you parked your Sonic in the tiny space between my car and whoever took Atomic Jeff’s space??? That was awesome. Thanks for the captains wafers.

Best report of the season!

Thanks for listening that far in!

Hell yea Barb! Take some runs for the PASRs!

You're fine; Square takes care of all the security/encryption stuff for you.

Don’t do it!!! Make up for it this summer. I personally am not allowed at my parents house until everybody is vaccinated. If your parents want to see you, meet them in a park for a picnic.

Soon you'll need your embedded microchip containing your ID2020 Bill Gates approved COVID19 digital vaccine certification to ski anywhere. A Facebook meme told me so.

Cash is in the account the following morning from a transaction the previous day.

That isn’t gonna help me when I don’t physically meet with customers. My mom has the credit card reader that hooks up to her iPhone because she does some art shows. Most mail in checks anyway which eliminates the merchant processing fee. We don’t accept Amex. I had had one customer who tried to pay her balance I believe around $900 over the phone on her debit card. It didn’t work and so she said she’d transfer money to credit union and use that card. She called yesterday to pay with that card and declined again. Of course she has a $500 daily limit which happens sometimes so called bank and then an hour later it worked. Pretty standard except customer was all mush mouth and there was organ music playing in the background but she called me sweetie for being patient.

https://denver.cbslocal.com/2020/12/03/covid-aspen-pitkin-county-coronavirus-negative-test/ Aspen will start requiring proof of a negative Covid test within 72 hours of traveling starting 12/14.

I actually don’t even mind the warehouses that are popping up less than a mile from my house on former farmland, although I dislike the shady dealings that put them there instead of the farmland that it used to be. But I think that 22 should have been widened to 3 lanes in each direction between the 78 access points before they started the warehouse boom along the root between those points.
