The Long Road Home

The kids had an awesome time yesterday. All boarded on blacks and blues and only one ended up black and blue. You will have to ask Chadley about his butt bruise. Chelsea was the first to throw in the towel followed by Logan. Devin and I were pretty much done about 2:15 but Tayte wanted to go some more so she and I headed to Peach Tree with Devin in charge of video. Blake and Chad took a break but headed out for a last run a little after 3. The lifts close at 4. We all got our equipment turned in on time and everything accounted for. The snow fall started in the afternoon. Everyone in CB was thrilled! Apparently, it has been weeks since it snowed. Signs at lifts and in shops said to pray for snow. Finally happened yesterday. That means it warmed up enough to snow. It has been way too cold to snow for weeks.

Oh and I found a little somthin' when I was getting off a lift. Seems as if someone was planning to get high on more than just the elevation!

After we cleaned up we went to town and ate at Donita's. Took forever! Then a walk in the snow down main street for a few last minute purchases. Back to the condo to pack. Hate that part! Devin and I went out to walk around a liitle more. Kids wouldn't go with us. Too tired. Pansies! It was so pretty to walk in the snow. Talked to one of the snow groomers. Those machines are incredible. And they start out at only $250,000. Might need one of those. When we got back an hour later they were all in bed.

We could hear coyotes on the mountain every night. Last night one sounded really close. Looked out the window and it was right there! Pretty cool.

Up this morning at 7:30. Boys took all the luggage down and Mr. Devin loaded up in the snow. We got checked out, snuggled in the car and on our way. It is pretty quiet in here. Lots of snoozing. I think we wore them out. Had such a great time. Thanks for loaning your kids to us! I know it made Logan and Tayte's trip.
