Title: Ski weekend
Post by: greatbuffalo on December 05, 2018, 12:15:25 AM
As some of you know I am traveling these days and at the moment am in Cadiz Kentucky. Pronounce Kay-deez.

Anyway my contract ends on Jan 12th. I am thinking about a ski weekend on the 18th and 19th of Jan.

What do you think?

maybe....Try out the new to me skis. I'll keep it on the radar.

on a side note...I was just there in your neck of the woods about 3 weeks ago returning from Maryville, TN.  Sat atop the Kentucky Dam looking over the map.  Had I known.....

Great idea, and yes, I'm always around, never go anywhere.

Ah I passed through Maryville area yesterday. Spent the weekend east of Asheville. Unbelievable riding in that area. And Kentucky dam is right up the road. Some good riding in the Land Between the Lakes. There is a little on my you tube page.

Will keep you updated on the ski weekend. These plans are tentative at this time.

Last of hi-jack...It looked that way as far as riding out there goes.  I sat atop the Dam while I looked to get found on the map. Momentarily misplaced myself.  I had to go do the Dragon and see my gal. 
Can you post/PM a link to your youtube page? 

Please update when you think you are ready for some skiing...

sorta tough to call it a ski team without the ski part...might just be a drinking team with a ski and motorcycle problem otherwise?

Wondering if we can get anyone out on the hill on Friday. We are coming out on Thursday as seeing the activity on the hill this weekend was thinking that Friday be the best day to get on the hill. One if those days I must spend the day with me wife. So will be skiing Friday or Saturday. I think Friday May be the best considering all the activity at the mountain this weekend.

Any thoughts?

Weather looks a little better for Saturday.  If Sat. works better for more people or just the weather, I can manage either way.  I'll come on Saturday morning for a few hours.  Just saying.

Can't make it friday. Have CPR training at work. You would think after 26 years I could skip it?

Post by: gerry1eye on January 17, 2019, 10:50:16 PM
Anybody skiing Saturday?

I don't like riding in the rain and don't like driving and skiing in snowy, cloudy, cold weather.
Not planning on skiing Friday. Going to miss seeing Dan go fast. Also, going to miss Shivers.

I love the grooming at Terry Peak and skiing on sunny, above freezing days like I have eight time so far this season.
