Colorado Wrap Up

The camp came to to end, unfortunately.  I think we were all getting quite used the high levels of vitamin D and time on snow.  But alas, every great thing must end.  With a final sandwich from the lodge and a couple free runs, we said our goodbyes to Winter Park and headed back to Williamstown.

We said our "see you laters" to Carson and our volunteer coach, Alex (ski team alumn '11).  We'll be catching up with Carson at Sunday River this weekend for some open races and hopefully Alex will venture from the big city of Philli for a bit to take a trip back to the 'ol Purple Valley.  We really appreciated you coming out with us - it was awesome having you there.

We saw some Midd Kids on our plane back - you really never can go through the Denver airport without seeing someone you know, generally in the ski racer world.  Then, with Carson absent (he tends to have strong [and quite valid] concerns with keeping a good diet), we made a 2:00am stop on the ride home at the finest steakhouse in America, serving billions each day - for some breakfast sandwiches and has browns.

Then it is back to the grindstone with school.  But I know everyone is excited to race this weekend at Sunday River - and of course to finish up the semester with those final papers and exams!

It was a great week - Thank you to Steve Graham and Rich Georgie for making this possible!  It has become a very special and productive trip -
