Lapp'n it up

So skidogdiggitydog said, and the 'real deal steel greelled spam and cheese' agreed on the below: (and I'll have you know I'm too old, too drunk, too don't give a shit, to actually try to quote that and put it in my message.) Anyway - this is what they say: "They don't jib, don't jump, just ski around and stop on the landings. Then they go 100 ft and stop again, this time they stand in the approach of the parks best rail and say "remember when the only thing on the slope was snow and skiers". Remember when the only thing on the mountain was snow and skiers? And there were no asshole punks like you? You wouldn't remember those days, would you? It was when we were blasting those mountains, carving the hills, creating the manmade snow machines so you and your family could enjoy what was once considered undevelopable countryside. So take a break next time you see an old-timer looking back up hill, and ask him what it was like when he was your age, when there really was nothing but skiers and snow. If he doesn't punch you in the mouth, I'm sure you'll get a great story or two.

Caddy - a tent sale is not the same thing as a 'tent purchased through capital acquisitions.' So, you missed the tent purchase, but the 'tent sale' is this weekend. Like you, I also can't wait for the new trail to open. Rumor is that it will be open 100% this year, even though brochure says otherwise. Your comments about plenty of money being left over since the 'tent purchase' are right on the mark with what I've heard from my friends here at Tussey. We'll see in a few weeks!

My friends and I were thinking about going, then we saw the M-Call article. We thought Blue was setting up a cool venue with some up-and-coming bands, backed up by some solid old-school bands for their first run at a concert, then we read that they really wanted to go commercial a la Dave Matthews, but they couldn't afford it, so this is what you get crap. I'm sorry for Blue to hear it was a bust, but I'm glad I saved my $. BTW - was that a Blue employee in the pic on that article or someone from one of the bands?
