Snow trip
Anybody or groups planning on a snow run in the near future? Would like to meet other Ford enthusists and have a fun day in the snow. Would be more interested in a family type outing (wife and kids).

Tom,
That is a great idea. Let's think about location, time and activities. Any suggestions anyone? I think sledding is always fun.
Thanks for posting your idea.

I do both cross-country and down hill skiing. Growing up in Montana, you had to figure out something to do after hunting season and before fly fishing in the spring or you would go crazy.

Funny, I lived in Tahoe for six years and skied every area on the northern part of the basin including Donner and Donner and Mt. Rose but I neer tried anything on the south side of the lake. I'd certainly be up for giving Kirkwood a shot. Do they have any good snow play areas for non-skiers?

I fall down alot.
This may be because I prefer to go skiing when it is 70 degrees or above and the the slopes are pretty icy. I left Nebraska because I don't like the cold. I'm getting ready to head down to Mexico in a few weeks.

Oh Chet, I wish I could go with you...
But anyway, since I can't, I'll check on the lift ticket availability to see what the limitations are. I head in to work tomorrow so I can check then. Let you know as soon as I find out.
P.S. Chet, I fall down allot too. It would be nice to have someone else around to take some of the attention off of me. It's kind of embarrassing when I'm the only cluts.

You should see me try to snowboard then...
I tried it once and spent most of the time on my *** so I gave it up and went back to skis!
I was pretty good back in the day, even thought about trying out for the ski team back in high school but I didn't really like the coach much. It amazes me when I think back on how much I enjoyed it and then just suddenly stopped going, haven't been on 'em for more than 10 years.

Let's get out on the slopes and see if I've still got it...if I do, I'd be glad to help you however I can. I once thought to be a ski instructor too...I should 'a stayed at Tahoe, best place I ever lived...
