January 26 marked the annual Chestnut Village ski day…

We’ve got this one nutty neighbor whose idea of fun is organizing this thing. He charters a huge “luxury coach” and gathers orders for lift tickets and lessons. We pack 50 or so folks into the bus, share coffee and doughnuts, drive 2-1/2 hours to beautiful Bretton Woods, and spend a day on the slopes!

We skied as a family and with our friends and had a blast. Snow conditions were excellent and the weather gave us a great day. We skied all kinds of slopes from smooth cruisers to double black diamond challengers. John took a fall while chasing Joshua though one of the glades that seems to have injured his knee - but he skied the day out and we’ll see how that heals!

After pounding the slopes, we moved across the street to a local restaurant for apres ski and dinner, and then piled back onto the beer-stocked bus for the ride home.
It was a great day with great friends! Thanks Rich!
