With what looks like a coaster on the other side of the table

Truly disappointed.

Yes that is a coaster on the other side of the table. Haha. 
 

looks like a ring next to the can.  I will just say that wasn’t there when I left boys. 
 

Kudos for skiing the same day you traveled!

I get crap at friends houses for not using coasters.  If you want any granite coasters Barb, I’ve got you.

Is the boots thing an inside joke?

Made it! The MAX 9 crushed it to Denver with a tail wind and landed 55 minutes early. Too bad our gate wasn’t open for another 60 so we sat. 30 minute flight to GUC and my dirty Blue BMW Uber was already waiting when we landed. Had to give him an extra tip because baggage took a while. 
 

Checked out @Barb’s awesome place quick and then caught the bus to the mountain. Got the tour from @AtomicSkierand skied some nice spring snow. It was quite warm and locals have some fun outfits going on. I need to learn the trail map a bit more but we were front, side, and back of Mount CB from what I could tell.

The Truly’s made it safe in the ski bag and are very refreshing after an afternoon of skiing. Hopefully hitting a dispensary and some take out dinner tonight.

 

(Current song from @AtomicSkier’s playlist is Miley Cirus “can’t stop” and I’m alright with it)

Go to Ryce. Foods amazing.

Drunken noodles with chicken was really good, not extra spicy like I asked for though. Calamari was 3.4/10

What happens in crested butte stays in crested butte.

Grabbed the 915 bus with cloudy skis. Up Silver Queen and down Paradise to the Paradise lift. Lower Ruby is a ton of fun with root rollers. Lapped that again, back up paradise and went Peoria and Horseshoe Springs since the sun doesn’t want to peak out. Springs is still crunchy but the bumps are nice. Down to SQ and did and international run. Easy to go 0-60 in a hurry that whole run. On SQ now and can see a snow shower moving in from the west. @AtomicSkiermight join at some point

Nope, but he did offer me granola. I had my left over noodles. 
 

Snow showed up with @AtomicSkierand made visibility even worse. Currently having a burger and beer at Paradise.

Nice I knew you’d breathe some new life into this report.  Granola lol..I thought maybe he’d at least have a microwaveable breakfast sandwich for you.

Looks great! Irwin has some good beer. You and @AtomicSkier should go to High Alpine in Gunnison for some beer and pizza.

Today marks by 200th day skiing west of the Mississippi or east of the Atlantic.  Thanks for celebrating with me @mute1080.

Headed up Paradise after lunch and visibility was gone. Was going to call It there but the bottom vis wasn’t too bad and gave it another chance on Silver Queen. Wasn’t as bad at the top and found a couple inches of fresh snow. Lapped Monument to International with some snow hitting above the boot. Caught the 245 back and a remix of Whitney Houston “I want to dance with somebody” is currently playing thanks to DJ @AtomicSkier.
