Ski season 2020/21

 COVID made this an unusual season, but thankfully with all the state, Skico and TOSV protocols in place we enjoyed another fantastic 5 months working and skiing. Bus driving for me was a challenge because of the mask wearing regs. and the plastic screen surrounding the driver’s cabin. Made communication with passengers sometime impossible leading to mutual frustrations. But working a 4 day, 36 hour week this year made the season just fly by . Mary also on a 4 day week with our days off more or less coinciding. We skinned up to Cliffhouse Buttermilk every Friday morning for the $6 cooked breakfast and usually to Bonnie’s on Ajax or Gwen’s at Snowmass on one of the other days. Fabulous conditions, although we seemed always to be working on the major powder days.

End of season now and we head to St Simons Is , GA to see 98 year old Betty for a week 

Hoping desperately to get back to UK and Ireland in the summer/autumn. First though a 4 day camping and mountain bike guided trip to North Rim of the Grand Canyon and a visit to Sun River, Bend , OR with Duncan and family at beginning of June.
