It’s that Ugly Time of the Year

Around here, it’s that ugly time of the year. The lifts are closed. Soggy ground has replaced snow. Instead of white, you see a blanket of brown. Snow showers have given way to rain showers, and the skies are overcast more often than usual.

The ground is much too soft for golf and wind makes cycling unappealing. As for water skiing or wakeboarding? Don’t even think about it yet. The water is just too cold.

But Colorado, Utah, BC and other places Beckon. Even New England resorts remain open for another couple weeks.

Expect posting to become less frequent in this space from here on out. Maybe twice a week. Maybe once a week. At the least, once a month. There is plenty of material in draft form, but some of it will wait until the next season.
