depending upon who you ask the annual ski boondoggle, which had been ten years strong, didn’t go down last year because either (1) i was in new zealand or (2) tld was getting knee surgery. obviously, if you ask me i put all the blame on (2) tld’s knee surgery.

but tld is bionic now and i’m back in the country so the tradition has been restored.

thanks to the hospitality of the v-family, we were tearing up the slopes in utah under sunny skies by day and taking in live theater; delightful conversation and home cooked meals by night. what a wonderful way to wrap up my “spring break”.
