March Goodness

Admittedly, I enjoy a little College B-ball during the latter part of this month and into the next. But quite simply, there is a sport that I enjoy more than any other during the first few months of each year. The weekend before last I was able to enjoy doing some time on the ski slopes with my good buddy Ed while Kerrah was on hiatus in St. George with the boys.

In fact it has always been a favorite past time of mine that during those frequent drives down South to see the In-laws, we adamantly announce our arrival upon seeing the sign of a town we pass through on our way...BEAVER!! Izac has always had a thing for animals, so of course I find it only natural to nurture his love for outdoor creatures by encouraging a good "Beaver" yell every time we make our trips. Well, just add Creek to the end of that and you have a great destination for a 3-day Colorado man-cation.

All of the thanks goes to our wives for helping to make this trip possible, maybe we'll even find a way to somehow persuade them into making it a tradition!?!? Here are a few shots taken at BC & Vail, we missed having you there Ports!


Make your way through a huge parking garage & the village, then you might actually reach the bottom of a lift!

The vast expanse that is Vail

Hard to think about skiing more after that $25 cheeseburger lunch


How about we just take this run all the way down to I-70?

This is what you get when too many deer get caught in the headlights...
...a pretty sweet chandelier!

Beaver Creek was the convenient favorite

How about this one Eddie?

Steep enough that you can't even see what's coming...

The best part of finishing up two days in a row of skiing


Hope to eventually be able to get the kids enjoying it as much as we do some day before we can't keep up!
