Donner Party of 20? Donner Party?


Donner Party of 19? Donner Party?


Favorite reservation prank ever!

THAT'S IT! I'M GOING CRAZY STUCK IN THIS CABIN! I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE! WHEN IS THIS STORM GOING TO END!

Well, I feel bad leaving my wife to face the snow alone (Ben is in Cleveland). But our neighbor knows how to use our snowblower and has agreed to help out (I've done his driveway, and the rest of the cul-de-sac multiple times).

Missing the snow. We have hardly any here at Steamboat - only a little over 18' so far this year (yes, 18 feet. We had a foot of freshies this morning.

Here's a photo from today...

Trying to convince wife & daughter to go to PA to hit the slopes Sat and Sun. Should be great skiing.

We'll be ok.... I got 10 ltrs. of tonic and 2 gallons of gin! Even if we run out of food and TP we prolly won't notice

Snow blower and generator are both functional and gassed up. Drive way cleared of vehicles and other unnecessary stuff.

Food and essentials stocked up.

I'm at work today, leaving at 11:30.

Later today, my wife & son have tickets to the Caps game at Verizon Center. She's getting a ride to Shady Grove, and taking METRO to meet him at NIH when he gets off work, around Noon. Then they're taking METRO into DC for lunch and time-wasting. Game start was moved from 7PM to 5PM. I'm looking forward to taking the Suburban out for some snow driving fun to pick them up from Shady Grove afterwards.

Tomorrow will be a good day to do some scotch and bourbon tasting.

Sunday.......let the Great Dig-Out begin.

Drove down to Wintergreen and arrived at midnight last night. The snow started here at 0830 this morning. Well stocked with food, firewood, skis, and libations

We were scheduled to go on a cruise out of Miami leaving Monday, but just no realistic way to get there within reason.....so canceled it with trip insurance, but still planning to be at the 24 Hours of Daytona next weekend. Camping inside the infield inside the Denali with the family......I picked up an inflatable air mattress custom fit for the truck. VERY cool, and very excited.

Must remember to put the blade on the tractor BEFORE it starts to snow

My Chesapeake Bay Retriever Maddux, RIP, would do the exact same thing. He'd keep it up for quite a while, until all of a sudden he would get sheepish with his tail down. He would freeze himself from the inside out, then spend the rest of the day peeing a river. Loved that dog....
