Monday - A-Basin - Day off

The plan with Christa working for a day off from skiing and hanging with Parker and Palmer.  Uncle David swung by and picked up Logan for a day trip to A-Basin.  

Sarah and Grandma took Parker out for another ski outing.  She is going to ready for the mountains next year for sure!!

Grandma, Grandpa, Sarah, Drake, Parker and Palmer after morning nap time bundled up took the shuttle to the center village to explore shops and eat pizza for lunch at the Sawmill Pizza.

Parker enjoyed digging into her pizza

The pizza is really good

They were able to park right up by the lift and had a great blue bird morning and overall fun trip.  A little icy, but they found fun tree runs and battled a lot of double diamond blacks.


Nap time for everyone after we got back and resting up for the dinner.  Dave and Donna came over after David, Logan and Christa piled in.  Great taco dinner and fun with the granddaughters.  

Uncle Logan holding Palmer - they were good buddies

It started snowing in the evening, but not impactful to everyone getting home safe.  Palmer didn't sleep well and had to be held all night, so rough start coming up for everyone.

Sunday - Ski Day - Grandma Grandaughter Day

Sunday morning started with Grandpa making coffee and putting in the egg casserole.  Then Parker saying hi from the top of the stairs.  Breakfast for everyone before making lunch burritos and getting ready. Logan and Jeff headed out first using the free shuttle.  Uber like interface that made it really easy as the driver auto text as approached pickup was helpful.  The two dropped at the West Village to ski the right side of the mountain.  The two hooked up with Drake, Sarah, David and Christa a little later.  Another spring blue bird day of skiing with the lift lines really not that bad for a weekend.  Sarah quickly got her ski technique going after a 2 year hiatus being pregnant. Like always great views from all vantage points and look at that ski! As lunch time approached, we found a great "Cocktail" spot and hung out enjoying the beautiful day.  Glizzy Dave enjoyed his brats while everyone else enjoyed their burritos and mid-day beverage.

Tuesday - Ski Day

Grandpa got up and cleared the 5+ inches of snow off the truck and headed to Frisco to pickup Uncle David.  With Christa working and they switching locations to ski Aspen the rest of the week it worked out to get David so she could pick up later.  Despite the snow coming down, 4 miles towards Frisco and the snow stopped and sun came out.  The mountains are amazing on weather patterns. New snow overnight - snowed all day - 5" base and over 10" top of mountain by 4:00 a.m. Ice Sickles from roof everywhere! Slow start, but David and Logan got off to the shuttle by 8:45 a.m.  Fresh powder day for sure.  Drake/Sarah and Grandpa headed out at 9:45 and took the shuttle to east village.  On to Super Bee chair to the top with snow and visibility not so good.  The wind was really picking up as well, making the last part of the chair ride nippy.  Sarah made it down the long run, but it took its toll as well as on Grandpa navigating such thick snow.  Ano...
