Cabin fever

In between seasons is not a place I like to be. These least favorite months of mine include November, beginning of December, April and May.

These are the times when it's too cold to waterski, camp comfortably, drive my car through the mountains or go rafting... and despite that cold, it's not quite time to ski, sled, or shovel my patio (as much fun as that is).

I'm not writing this blog to complain, I'm just making note that this is my last week of "in between" and this weekend, I am kicking my cabin fever!

In fact, the end of December could be one of the best times of the year -- because resorts are having deals all over the place, luring skiiers and snowboarders with cheap passes and hotel discounts because their snow isn't quite up to par yet. I will take it!

Sun Valley, here we come!

I leave you with some of my favorite snow day pictures from last season.

Drinking wine on the mountainside is what the cool kids are doing.



Beau & the infamous tailgate, plus a little homemade wine we like to call "Beauvine"



I have no comment for the next three pictures.







Breaking in new boots is no easy feat.



Don't ask.



Our secret snow cave!





Tailgating in a blizzard-- not so glamorous.
