Going all in

So finally decided to take the plunge and fork over the cash (actually plastic) to buy a ski pass. First time since getting a 'Loaf pass in 2000-2001. With Cooper turning 5 this year and me still not taking him out on the slopes yet, the feeling of parental neglect is setting in. Got one for myself and one for Cooper to Magic Mountain. Bals, hope we get the snows to get you over here...lot less excuses this year. Now I just need to keep my eyes out for the ski sales...d'oh.

With the temps for several days now skirting the 80 degree mark hard to imagine this: New York State (1836)
(Oct. 11 & 12) Snow fell in NY for the 3rd straight Wednesday. Greatest amount fell in Hamilton, NY (site of Colgate Univ.) 35 inches measured there. Oxford, NY had 12 inches. Utica reported 4 feet, but this has not been confirmed.
