Any reports from Big Sky? OnTheSnow says they’ve been getting a few inches every couple of days, forecast to continue at least until we arrive March 2. Thinking it should be plenty good enough for 2 senior blue skiers, but updates would be appreciated.

Go to the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum; it’s all genres (not just country) with emphasis on the musicians instead of the stars. It also showcases the production side of the recording industry with studios, hands-on activities, and various displays. Well worth the visit if you have any interest in any types of recorded music. I thought it was more interesting than the Country Music Hall of Fame, although that & the Ryman are worth a visit.

Does Escape (The Pina Colada Song) count? A couple cheating on each other with each other…?

From the same album:
After The Thrill Is Gone;
literal lead to start the song.
Randy Meisner was the soul of the Eagles, in my opinion.

Haven’t been since our honeymoon in 1983 but I remember I was surprised that it was much more Arizona Desert than Hawaii Tropical. Not bad at all but just not what we had expected (in the pre-internet info research days.)

Just got back from a week at Wolf Creek (4 ski days) - it was 100% open, although getting a little bare and icy in the more traveled areas. They got about 6 inches new right after we left, and they could use more, but overall it was good enough for us as solid blue skiers. It’s also much cheaper than the big Epic/Ikon resorts; only problem is having to stay 20 to 30 minutes away and negotiating Wolf Creek Pass.
Billed as the “Oldest Par 3 In America,” built in the 1920’s. I moved from Alexandria before I played any golf, but want to try it sometime when passing through. Lots of nostalgia in the area around the course, with the zoo, the old amusement park. Bringhurst Field, and Dixie Youth baseball all being part of my childhood.

A little different take - as expensive as everything is, I'm wouldn’t bring a family of learners to one of the major resorts; you won’t get your money’s worth & won’t use anywhere close to all of the mountain, especially with only 3-4 days. Go somewhere smaller & cheaper and concentrate on learning.
In Colorado, Granby Ranch has ski-in/out lodging, a small mountain, cheaper prices, and 20 mins from Winter Park if you want to hit a big resort once you’re all comfortable on skis. Loveland is another smaller, affordable place but the closest lodging is about 15-20 minutes away in Georgetown (which is a cool little mining town.) Plus it’s closest to Denver. Other smaller areas: Red River & Angel Fire in NM, Whitefish in MT, and Grand Targhee in WY. Plenty of others as well.
If you’re committed to a big resort, check Park City UT - expensive, but lower altitude, easy access from SLC airport, fun ski town. For big CO resorts, Breck is good for families. Steamboat is too, but harder to get to. If you do go to Steamboat, spend your first day at Howelson Hill in the center of town - one of the longest operated ski areas in the country, home for Olympic training, and ridiculously cheap. Small & bare bones, but perfect for never-evers.

If you get to the Kaanapali area, try the Honokowai Okazuya & Deli. Styrofoam takeout in a strip center but maybe the best food (and portions & value) we had on Maui. Rumor has it the cooks worked (or maybe still do) at Mama’s.

Thanks for the Pagosa/Wolf Creek intel. We’re staying in a condo on Park Ave a mile or two west of Walmart (not the Wyndham property.) I assume that’s also west of Putt Hill, whatever that is. Is that a bad location?
Still haven’t figured out how to post links, but look up “All I Want Christmas To Be” by the Mona Lisa Twins on YouTube. Their Beatles covers are fantastic, and I really like this song for the old-guy memories it stirs.
