You better get into PT ASAP for that knee, It just won't be the same if you are not here. But we will take you any way we can. I do need someone to carry my gear and as you remember there are hot tubs everywhere or it could be just a girls weekend.

Poncho

We will take good care of you get you gear a lesson if you would like, (I do know some great teachers). Don't worry about anything just bring a warm jacket and the rest can be put together when you are here. I am just beaming to think I may get to meet my big sis.

Now for an update: we got 8-9 feet of snow this last weekend. I skied waist deep powder shooting over my head. This was the best skiing I have done in years. In the last 2 weeks I was off my skis for only 3 days and taught lessons from advanced to beginners and worked my body out hard very hard. My back feels better then it did before my accident. It is just incredible and such a blessing to have my life back to the level I dreamed about. You can read more and see some pictures on my blog link below.

Any more skiers out there??????????

I will join Mark w/Grappa and just hang out while you all do all the work/intense play!

I second the fact that Paulette has the kind of infectious energetic happy nature that makes one feel good even if she's very active and I'm very not!

Sue, bet you'd have a blast~ if I see that you go for this trip, I may just submit to surgery one of these days!

You are so sweet. I hope I can rub off on you too and see you get to the other side someday. You will be staying at the Ridge Tahoe resort. There is a spa, massage, sauna etc. You can also take a scenic ride up the gondola to the top of the mountain and see all the way around the lake, breath taking. So as you can see there is a lot more to do then just ski in Tahoe. If you want you can also take your chances and hopefully not give your money to Nevada.

Will need to make reservations soon so it’s time for a head count send me a PM if your coming.

Hey Paulette,
that sounds great and I would love to actually go~ however my father just the other day called me from Fla. sounding frantic. His back had gone out and he's 86 and alone so I'm taking it day by day and hoping he will be getting better. Should I have to fly w/o advance reservations, the 3 seats will be killer price so I guess I have to pass on the ski trip this year!

Maybe one of these days I'll make it to the other side and/or even before I can hang out for one of the other get togethers~ like a beach blanket bingo affair!

take care and my best to you and everyone else!

I'm sorry you can't make it. It would be fun to get together as it has always been.

I woke up to 2+ feet of powder today and it's still coming down. This is turning into a dream season for me last time it snowed this much I was lying on my back swallowing pain pills. Now I'm ripping up the powder. I posted a video on my blog for your viewing pleasure.

Paulette,
You AMAZE me!!!!! Just incredible to read your blog! Maybe we can catch each other in Miami at Mark's conference. Hope to see you again one of these days soon
