Superbowl Kirkwood
February 5, 2005




A leasurly drive to Kirkwood on a Saturday morning... We got lucky right at Kirkwood; cars parked on the road, people out of their cars... The line never seemed to end, probably some accident further up the road. We didn't get caught this time.




So we put on our skis and headed for the trails.

blue skies and quite warm









Deeper in the forest, we run into Christof, Imola...




...and Martina!

darkness falls, heading back




We all gather up at Hanna's & Chuck's to cook a delicious meal.
[teriyaki flank steak, arugula salad, mash & gravy]




for dessert - poached pears with French vanilla ice cream, whiskey




We're back at Kirkwood next morning to enjoy the alpine slopes.

Great snow today!

And nobody on the slopes - it's Superbowl Sunday!
