Week Fifteen: Photo a Day 2009

Here is WEEK 15 of our "Photo a Day" project. We are in week FOUR of our month long ski trip. We have been in Big White for over a week now. Claudia & Robert flew out on the 13th as Shirley arrived in Big White. Tom, Shelia and Amanda left on the 14th. We've had spring skiing and cold winter storms. We even had 10 cm of fresh powder one morning. It's been fabulous.Paper and elements from Vicki Parker's A Work in Progress "Lucky Fish.”

Week Fourteen: Photo a Day 2009

Here is WEEK 14 of my "Photo a Day" project. We are in week THREE of our month long ski trip. We left Keystone, CO on Saturday and put in two long days of driving to arrive in Big White, Canada by Sunday. We left in a snow storm which cleared up by the time we drove through Salt Lake City. We over nighted just short of Boise, ID. Sunday we drove Hwy 84 to 395 to 17 to 97 through Oregon, along the Snake River, and Washington, along the Columbia and Okanagan Rivers. Beautiful scenery.Monday, Gene drove to Kelowna to pick up Robert and Claudia. Tuesday, he drove to Kelowna to pick up Tom, Shelia, and Amanda. Tom got a great deal on some demo skis. The skiing has been mostly spring-like — hard pack early and slush in the afternoon. It's been spitting snow off and on but nothing of note. We've been having a blast.

Keystone Photo Gallery

Just finished up the Keystone photo gallery — Week TWO of our mega ski trip. We left for Keystone in snow. There were some amazing views along the way. We stopped by a number of ski areas along the way — Grand Targhee, Jackson Hole, Howelson Hill and Steamboat. It was really COLD by the time we got to Keystone. It snowed most days and we had some fantastic powder skiing. We left Keystone in a snow storm and arrived in Big White around midnight on Sunday. Spring skiing around here is fun.Later.

Big Sky Photo Gallery

Just finished up the Big Sky photo gallery — week one of our mega ski trip. We left for Big Sky in rain and then later snow. There were some amazing views along the way. It snowed once we got to Big Sky where we experienced some snow days and some blue days and lots of fresh, deep powder. We were captivated by Lone Mountain which towers over the three ski resorts that share the peak — Big Sky, Moonlight Basin, and Yellowstone Club. As usual, it was a wonderful trip and we can't wait to return again next year.Later.

Week Thirteen: Photo a Day 2009

Here is WEEK 13 of my "Photo a Day" project. We are in week two of our month long ski trip. We left Big Sky, MT on Saturday and stopped by four ski areas to check them out for future trips— Grand Targhee, WY, Jackson Hole, WY, Howelson Hill and Steamboat, CO. I think Grand Targhee is the winner for next year.

We arrived in Keystone, CO on Sunday. Monday, Gene bought much needed ski boots. It's taken a few days to get them fit correctly but today they were the best. It has been so cold here in Keystone, below 0°F with the wind chill. Last night it snowed about 6" and actually warmed up some. Tomorrow is suppose to be a blue day. But it's 10 PM and still snowing!??!Paper and elements from Stacey Tower's Stacey's Scraps “A Touch of Romance.”
