Mighty Grigor and The Home Office Blues: Tuesday, February 26th!

Humankind's wounds, those huge sores that litter the world, do not stop at the blue and red lines drawn on maps. -Victor Hugo, poet, novelist, and dramatist (26 Feb 1802-1885)


Staying at this great old hotel in Ashland, en route to sunny California, and I spotted this wine, in the wine bar where we were eating, and it brought back many happy memories. Cheers Mick Ah yes , I remember it all well! Nectar!..
No doubt signs of more to come. Andrew
Forgot to mention Mike that Anne & I went to Seghesio last year for a tasting. They charge US $25 each to taste and only waive it if you buy 3 bottles@ US$45/ bottle!Those were the days when it was free and some of us were able to say” may I be so bold as to ask .....?” 😋
Enjoy Ashland . We’re jealous! Andrew


Hello Patrick et all, Answering your questions regarding Apex: The best place to buy your tickets is Costco or Sportscheck. To get a good feel for the mountain they can meet with a ski host at 9am or 1pm above The Edge coffee place.
The Apex website also gives you a detailed map of the terrain.Green easy slopes, blue intermediatiate and black advanced.The daily report on the website tells you which ones will be groomed, but I suggest do an orientation with the Apex host. Enjoy the mountain. Jos
Thank you Aart. Appreciate the feedback. We look forward to experiencing the hill. Thanks again, Greg Hi Greg, Just so that you know, if you are 65 or 70, passes at the ticket booth at Apex may be the cheapest. You have to check. Success, Aart Best price lift tickets may be at Costco and I believe unused tickets can be returned for full value....check it out. Sorry I am unable to do a tour guide this time as we are skiing the steep and deep Wasatch mountains near SLC in Utah until about March 10. Miss the hikes and snow shoe days! I am sure Aart will have a good idea on snow conditions at Apex. Cheers.......Kilian

Hola Patrick We always snowshoe at Nickel Plate nordic centre or Carmi Idleback is much closer for me, I will have to make an effort to find it, looks beautiful! I have a gentleman here from Moduline fixing descrepanies today, no snowshoeing for me. I have put "the date" in my phone I will pray for you and hope all goes well the day of your surgery. Sorry to hear Corinne went off without you, looks like Chloe is great company! Ciao Kelly
