Well, Taos announced their plans on Friday for the season and they aren't offering any ski school for kids which is kind of a dealbreaker. We can pay $750/kid per day for a private lesson but I'm not made of money. Plus, it looks really restrictive regarding eating, drinking, etc. This will probably be the first year since 2011 that I don't get Taos in. Narrowed it down to Sun Valley or Steamboat for the family trip.

I looooooooooooooovvvvvvee Stevie Nicks.

This is true.

Almost pissed my pants when I saw this

I've taken covid pretty seriously, but honestly if Chris Christie can survive it, maybe it's not that bad!

Big and Friendly indeed.

What is a Big and Friendly book?

Maybe 2020 has a silver lining after all.

This fucking guy has some balls.

If you guys like stadiums built into mountains you should check out the Sun Bowl in El Paso, TX. I had a scrimmage there once in high school and its really cool - you park at the top (like Jack Frost) and the stadium is below.

Planning skiing for the family is definitely going to be a bit more tricky than usual this year. I already reserved our house in Taos for early March, and I'm assuming that once they announce their plans that it won't be a problem to get lift tickets, but I'm mentally preparing myself to be flexible. Maybe even have to skip the trip if travel restrictions come up again due to Covid. Assuming no government-imposed restrictions I am planning on skiing wherever I want, I don't care if it costs more money, and as far as I'm concerned there is no Covid during ski season.

Can someone who used to have a medical card but doesn’t anymore have a LCTF? Asking for a friend...

This being the case, if ever questioned you could claim that you got your medical license to have easier access to medical grade CBD which is not a controlled substance.

Not sure if they are allowing eat-in or what right now, but Teresa's Next Door on North Wayne Ave. is my favorite beer bar of all time. My wife and I celebrate every birthday there sitting at the bar. No TV's just talk with people like in the old days and put that fucking phone away! The bartenders are ridiculous with their knowledge of beer, whiskey and biodynamic wines. You gotta try it if you haven't been there before. I have a feeling you will like it too.

You can make candy easy. Just buy the tincture and look up how to make gummies on google.

Salt and vinegar!

I've been dreaming up the "hands free cheese ball dispenser" for years now. Maybe now is the right time to bring this idea to life.

I’m pretending there is no COVID on the days I go skiing. Just being honest.

Could it happen?

This would make way more sense than the way I was thinking about it.

I was bored and I clicked to purchase the advance tickets to see what it was all about, and it shows only 5 available 4 hour tickets for AM and 5 available 4 hour tickets for PM for most of the dates. The 8 hour tickets are limited to 10 some days and 20 on others. I have to assume that these tiny allotments are because of early season limited terrain. it will be interesting to see how these allotments change as the season progresses.

I bet if you measured from the boot to the tail of one person and the tip to the boot of the next, it would be pretty damn close to six feet apart (lengthwise) in line. I think the real challenge is going to be to separate the lines side to side. We might see one "cohort" line and a bunch of spread out singles lines.

The "Pocono Promise" lol.

Not sure if this is old news, but looks like Blue's initial plans for the winter do not include screwing over season passholders!
