Its Here!

Winter!! Yes!!

Winter in Salt Lake City is welcomed with open arms. The newscasters are absolutely giddy when a storm hits the city. One of our favorite stories: Fred was at the bank and mentioned to the teller how much he loved all the fall colors. Her reply was 'Screw the colors, I want snow!'

We had our first big storm during the wee hours of Saturday and woke to 7 inches on the ground. The mountains received 15. Some years the resorts have opened as early as late September.

This year most resorts pushed their opening back to November 30 because of the miserable accumulation so far. They opened with very few runs open, and most of the snow was man made. But one day after opening, WHAM! We were hit! Soooo.......



More later - Gone Skiing!


By the way, we are supposed to get another big storm next weekend. Awesome.
