Magic carpet

For the next three days we’ll be at Attitash Mountain ski resort in New Hampshire. As you might guess, early December, midweek is not a popular time to ski, so we basically have the entire hotel and ski resort to ourselves. Excited to have a big place with two floors and our own full kitchen! Another thing that is always […]

Rock skiing

Today we skied Wildcat <insert cat growl noise> in New Hampshire. (Live free or die!) The only thing worse than the visibility was the coverage. Great time/place to ski if you’re trying to destroy your gear. We stuck to the (two) runs with better coverage, got our 10k, and headed out. It was a fun time but it was a […]

Two lifts and about 5 legit runs open (Epic claims 24 runs open). One lift is a bubble, which is awesome on cold […]

Get paid to see the Pats?

In my logistics research on tickets, I found a parking lot that pays YOU $50 to park as long as you leave 75 minutes after the game. What?! Needless to say, we were in. Unfortunately though, Boston’s forecast was not in. With a 95% […]

Boston

The next stop on our New England journey was Boston. Rosie & Eliza were our gracious hosts for the weekend! We had some extra time before meeting up with them, so we checked out the Harpoon brewery near their place. The tasting was great; would highly recommend to anyone in the Boston area. It was only $5, and we and […]
