The kids had three days off last week for conferences, which included 12 on our birthday. We enjoyed a great birthday dinner at Che Fico Parco Menlo. After one last conference on Thursday morning, we departed for a fairly easy drive to Tahoe.
It was dumping snow for about two days, which made for some of the best conditions this season. Lucas had a bunch of friends at Palisades, so he spent the night there and skied with them on Saturday. When we woke up to 14″ of fresh snow and Olivia declared that she didn’t like skiing powder, she quickly plummeted down the rankings of favorite daughter. I skied the rest of the day myself in every glade I could find.
On Sunday, Lucas and I went out for a couple hours to enjoy 6″ of fresh snow. It felt like a lot more and we were able to find plenty of fresh tracks on the back side. It was tough to leave such great conditions, but we ended the season on a very high note.
