    So we may have scored a free place in Steamboat, which changes a LOT. Not sure how much of hostess’ invite last night was vino, or legitimate, though. Either way, kinda excited by prospect.

    Amazing thread. Thank you all. I hope some other families can read into it. Mom said that you’re no way. I’m talking bargain at skiing pretty much anywhere. Forget good resorts forget the whole thing. She’s not going. :-( I think she’s being a little bit shortsighted. She went to...
