Happy New Year to all my best friends here on the forum! We are hoping

[Sunny]

the roads will be clear enough for us to be able to leave about 5:00 in the morning. I went all week long without falling, that is until today! I was on a ski lift by myself, and when it came time to get off of the thing, I was gettig off, and I guess I was a bit slow................so the edge of the lift gave me a bit of a push............and down I went. The only thing it hurt was my pride, but I skied to the bottom of the hill and did it three more times, so I would not be afraid to do it again. It was 8 degrees today, and the wind was blowing like crazy. Each time I came down, I had to stop and defog my goggles! I hope we get out of here okay, and I will NOT miss this place. Also, I think I will be telling Scott he can come whenever with who ever he wants, but this will likely be my last visit to Breckenridge, at least snow skiing. I did talk to one local and he said in the spring and summer the fishing is great! Now I would go for that trip for sure!

Anyway, love and Happy New Year to everyone who reads this! We made it thru another year!

we drive it straight through! Can be tough, but there are ten of us, and we are driving our Expedition and Tahoe (which I just gave to my oldest grandson, Jordan for Christmas). Right now we are in Kansas.....Roads started clearing up around Denver. Christi (my oldest daughter) is driving. Ben is in the front seat with her, and Jordan in in the back. I have the whole middle seat to myself, so I am laying down and catching up a bit! Ben keeps asking us every hour how much longer we have until we get home. I finally taught him to read the GPS........I think it depressed him! He laid down on his pillow in hopes of at least sleeping through a couple of hours of it! It helps me to be able to lay down too! Just another little adventure, and Ben said it's the best trip he has ever been on. He is quite the little snowboarder. Photos later on! We have the cruise set, everyone must wear seatbelts, and of course having Ipods helps to be entertaining! Talk to you soon.

pretty good, as I have some of my children and grandchildren with me as we are driving! Only trouble is,......I have to have more frequent bathroom stops, ..........comes with the territory of getting older! Maybe we can all get together this year again!

really pamper me and make me fix a bed in the backseat and rest all the way home. If we get too tired, we will spend the night somewhere on the road, but if this is anything like the other trips, we'll drive all the way in! It was a good time, just getting away and FINDING my snow I wanted so bad. But, after a week, I can see where some of you would get tired of it. Plus, it never got higher than 14degrees the whole time we were there. Locals even said this was unusual for this time of year! Well send photos soon! Tell Gracie HNY, and can't wait to meet you guys someday!
