Patrol - Ben - Front Range Visit

Ben was just in town for the weekend. We had a great time - though it flew by... as vacations do best. Ben had an atypical experience for a vacationer here... he got to drink beers in the Patrol Lockerroom after skiing on Friday - we then happened to be first on scene to a Traumatic Brain Injury on Saturday (I was off duty) - but I ran the scene until patrol got there - and then held hands-on-stabilization for his spine while we loaded him up onto the tobaggon. We then were Bubba and Betty the Bear for the Christmas Parade in town. A friend of ours works for the Chamber of Commerce and asked Liz to be Bubba - but Liz got called in for Patrol - so Ben and I offered to do it... it was hillarious.

Last week was part-timer training for Patrol - we worked all week - and learned the ins and outs of the mountain and its operation. It's going to be a great job.

This week I work Patrol tomorrow - Liz works today - and then we're off to Boulder for the IPS holiday party - we'll be down in the Front Range for 3 days - so if you're reading this and you're down there - CALL US!

While we're down there I've got 4 properties to shoot from a helicopter - so that should be fun too.

For those that are slow on the uptick - Shawn and Meghan got engaged - YAY!!! Colby and Kelly got engaged as well!! YAY!!!

No... we haven't set a date yet - but we will... Perhaps late March of '08 so that you all can come and enjoy some Spring Skiing?? Perhaps the 24th?? We'll keep you updated.
