Surprisingly Covid does better in dry environments. https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/hsph-in-the-news/op-ed-humidity-can-aid-in-the-fight-against-covid-19/

With a season pass, do you need to reserve anything for the day of skiing, or just show up?

Sunday River too, I think.

Moving carpet to get on the lift?

Are they getting rid of the hot air dryers in the restrooms and putting in paper towels? VDBs (virus distribution blowers)

Usually when I was on a slope I had no business being on.

I think I’ve seen god more on the ski slope than in church.

I’m used to it - consultants always get the blame when things go wrong and none of the credit when things go right.

It isn’t the China virus, it’s the bye-bye boomer virus.

I was in the choir as a young teenager, with a nice soprano voice. Had a duet with another guy my age, and both of our voices started breaking that Sunday during the song. Pretty embarrassing, The choir director always thought we did it on purpose.

I was working in Fort Lee and had to travel 100 yards on Rt 4 the day of Bridgegate. Took me 45 minutes, but even I wouldn’t wish this on Christie.

No, I was baptized Baptist, a deacon in the local church and have a MA in theology, although my grandfather was a founding member of the local Hungarian language Catholic Church. Let’s continue somewhere else as suggested. If we annoy GSS, we must be pretty bad.

So she wasn’t a female leader in the people of praise group (not a Catholic group btw)? Called handmaidens until the Margaret Atwood book came out when the changed the title? Or is that fake news?

People of Praise Handmaiden. Why are they hiding it? Is she ashamed of her religion?

Who has also apparently taken an oath to obey her husband in all things.

Trump ran for president because he was 2 billion dollars in debt to Deutschland Bank (i.e. Putin) and needed to get publicity for his brand, never expecting to come close to winning.

Think little cliff huck is gone. They smoothed out that cut out on the left as you approach the East mountain chair.

I was told by an employee that someone noticed a crack in the hanger arm for a chair, and an inspection of more chairs showed cracks in about a dozen of the chairs, so they decided that all the chairs would need replacing to run it again. Not sure if he was supposed to give that information out. It was in use for a couple of weeks last season before they shut it down.

Not fully converted yet. Especially if I can keep getting 15 dollar midweek senior passes at Frost. Vegging out now after a nice early run on the Lehigh

There are 2 actually. The quad serves blacks Challenge and Thunderbolt. The one to the west (double triple) allows easy access to Thunderbolt, but you have to skate a little to get to Challenge. Plus you had to deal with the park rats :-). From both of these trails you can’t return to that lift (which normally serves blues) but have to go over to the East mountain lift. From that lift you can of course ski East mountain, but you have to do a fairly long downhill traverse to Challenge, or do the traverse and skate a little to get to Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt was pretty deserted all last year. It wasn’t too bad to lap Challenge on the East mountain chair, but thunderbolt was a pain. Hard to get a rhythm, and for me at Frost with the slow lifts, it is all about hopping off the lift and being right at the top of the trail, and then skiing right onto the lift without any traverses. Although the bottom of East mountain is a pain with the flat runout. Plus the East mountain lift is 90 seconds longer than the quad for really no increase in skiable elevation. Doesn’t sound like much, but when you do 20 trips in a morning, it adds up. The quad is 6 minutes up, 90 seconds down.

Given the lack of answers to questions on the JFBB Facebook site, doesn’t look like the quad will be in operation next year.

Zero water filter travel mug. Used to keep one in the hotel room and one in the office when I was traveling. Arsenic in the south, fluro compounds, fracking radioactivity, unfortunately bottled water isn’t any better than tap water.

And a UV wand.

Same with my granddaughter in daycare.

Excursion train from Jim Thorpe thru the Lehigh gorge starting up. No word on the resolution to the entertainment tax issue.
