Today I spoke with a woman from Texas who is already
thinking about skiing… She says its 104 degrees and the mosquitoes are the size
of small cars. She said envies me for getting to be in Vail today, where
the temperature is 70. We talk about her plans to visit several ski
resorts this coming winter and how she enjoys the freedom that the Epic Pass
now provides; giving her the opportunity to visit ski areas in Colorado, California,
and Utah. I find it intriguing that folks from the warmer climates gather
their enthusiasm for their upcoming snow vacation as a form of mental escape
from the heat.
It won’t be long now… school is starting, leaves are
changing, jackets are being pulled from our closets. We all wonder if it will
be a ‘good’ snow year. We hope so, but we can’t control that so there’s
no point in dwelling, but instead just aligning with optimism. Even a little
snow makes it do-able, and the surroundings so beautiful.
Anticipating winter, each of us in our own way…
