We skipped out on a beautiful sunny day of possibly great skiing for a tour of Woodstock and a bit of sugaring (maple syrup collection and production). It was a trade off but I don't regret it even though I did look up at Killington longingly a time or two.
The first part of the day consisted of Becky driving us around pointing out a lot of beautiful houses and farms giving us small bits of gossip along the way. The only problem was that she is just not enough of a Peyton Place type of chick. Kim and I needed more gossip. I'm sitting here watching American Idol so I'm going to critique Becky like an AI contestant. "You just needed to put a little more feeling into it. You needed to give us more, damn it!" She promised to bone up on her tour guide responsibilities for next time. I mean come on we need to know more along the lines of 'who's doing whom'. She was, though, a great location scout. Just judge for yourself. Our pictures are attached. We then proceeded to Long Trail Brewery for our free "lovely ladies lunch".
Kim and I dumped Becky (she couldn't wait to get out of the vehicle so she could take a nap to tune up for happy hour at her moms). We then went to meet up with Alex at the Jenne Farm to check out the sugar maple trees. Very cool.
We are back on the slopes tomorrow. It's supposed to be 55 degrees and bright, bright sun. YEAH!!!
Until then,
Sarah

It is no wonder there is little snow in VT. We are just not good enough even for three snowballs. The gossip is all old news. I'm not up on the flatlander takeover stuff. I didn't get a nap in and I also did not drink at my mom's. I was to wiped out from the ladies and all of their questions!
I however, give them each 5 snow balls for not complaining on the 3 + hour mud tour! They were very good sports. (They did tell me that I was only getting 1 maybe 2 snowballs for the day) I do need to do my homework for the summer trip!
