I should have looked for you on my ride home from work.

More than I thought I would. The best part is access to the hickory run plaza.

POC is just dying to get off at that Penn Forest turnpike ramp.

Luckily I captured it...

It then proceeded to do the "Macarena" while juggling bowling pins. In all seriousness it totally did the stand up, paw thing.

Stony Creek... Literally a few hundred feet from the turnpike. After it crossed the road, my daughter started yelling "hi bear". I kid you not it heard her, stood up on its hind legs and lifted it's paw.

I stayed at a decent place in Rutland before (comfort Inn I think) near the Diamond whatever mall... Didn't think it was that bad.

Just another day in the Poconos

Now if only we could make our mountains about 10x larger we'd be all set. http://wnep.com/2015/09/10/international-ski-areas-studying-the-poconos/ TANNERSVILLE -- Some ski area leaders have their sights set on making business even better in Europe, Canada, and even here in the U.S. They’re learning how at all of Camelback’s resorts in Tannersville. "How they incorporate the Camelback Mountain Adventure Park, the zip line with the water features, with the skiing, with the summer/winter business, there's a lot that we can study in the model that we have here,” said Ski Area Management Magazine publisher Olivia Rowan. The three-day annual conference is run by the trade magazine Ski Area Management. Those attending say it’s an action packed trip. "It's a really hands-on camp here. Nobody's in suits and ties; we are all out getting muddy and dirty and trying the activities out,” said Tom McHugh of Vermont. "Just seeing this operation, how they've made incredibly good use of the acreage, is something I don't really think we have considered as well as they have here,” said Michael Dixon of New Hampshire. Dixon says he works at Mount Sunapee in New Hampshire and says he’s already found room for improvement at their year-round resort. "A lot more things than I thought, a lot of the sessions were the marketing, pricing, things like that. It's easy to pick out little small areas that we are missing,” said Dixon. With a mountain coaster, zip lines, indoor and outdoor waterparks, a ski area and then some – every season is filled with adventure options at Camelback. That’s exactly what these other resort leaders say they’re striving for. "This is now the model of the mountain resort industries," said Rowan, "a four-season resort, a true four-season." The ski area management summer conference runs through Friday in Tannersville.

Heat's on for the first time this season.

Thanks for speaking for us? Can I hire you as my personal speech writer?

No idea yet since the family vacay in June is a huge priority this year. A Lake placid / Vermont trip may be in the cards. Otherwise Snowbird / Solitude are calling. And of course a trip to Winter Park to ski with Barb again would (as always) be awesome.

Google is your friend

Just went to buy one... Sold out

This. We were skiing over pumpkins.

Ugh... My old ass won't make it to 12. I'll check in the am. Thanks for the info rideDE.

That's so sweet!.. It's Chuck D.

Tupac?

Bono's a baller

Doesn't sound snobby at all. Sounds like a smart idea to me.

I can't tell if you're serious (likely not) but it does look pretty bad ass when the top part is in cloud cover.

Greatest stall ever is the outhouse thingy just off of one of the trails at Alta (under the Catherine's area I believe). It's like a giant well. After release, you would hear the "splash" approximately 4 seconds later. It's fantastic.

It may look like beef jerky or even dog shit but it's actually a piece of rock from the moon. Pretty cool!
