During a pandemic, we skied/snowboarded for 30 days this season. And we live in NYC! That seems low to some and high to others. Let me break it down this way, we spent 30 days on a mountain from December-March and we never jumped on a plane. I wish I could say it was 70 days, but my point is – even when you live in a big city –… Keep Reading
There’s no need to repeat it again, but why not? 2020 is THAT year. A strange year. But alas, here we are only a few days away from 2021 and the countdown is on.
