Last ski run

That’s it, after 68 consecutive ski seasons, a ski pandemic, daily reservations and social distancing on lifts, I’m now ready to throw the towel and get rid of the boards! 

I’ve just got enough skiing, spending too much of my precious time riding lifts instead of sliding down and I’m ready now for a more efficient form of recreation, like walking on the beach, playing bocce or watching afternoon soaps on TV. 

No more season-passes to buy, skis to tune and glove to drop from the chairlift! I don’t want to anxiously stare anymore at the November skies for some elusive snow either. 

We'll sell our Park City home, our ski gear, and move to either California or perhaps Hawaii. 

We plan to buy a small cottage by the ocean, install solar panels on its roof and finally purchase a clean, electric Voltswagen to finally squash our carbon footprint. 

See you soon on the beach!

Might just be April Fools' day delusion...
