No Room at Virgin

Well, it's official. Currently no room at Virgin (at least in the contact centre) for me to return to. So, it's officially job-seeking time in South Lake Tahoe.... I have 5 weeks to find employment for the summer. Wish me luck!

Sorry for the delay

I've been catching up with everything after the family left. Rebecca flew back to the UK after her surgery, we visited the Millers for dinner the other night... we had a LOVELY meal out at a restaurant in Reno, called Rapscallion. Excellent seafood, nice place. And a world-class Bloody Mary!

We had huge powder, then blue skies and sunshine. They have FINALLY opened the 'new trail' Pinnacles, and it is a lovely, double-fall-line black diamond groomer. Well, they are supposed to groom it once a week. We loved it!

Not too much work, but I have been booked on a load of afternoon private lessons, which has let me ski around most of the mountain. Loads of high wind days, which means we start mostly at the California base, but also spent a load of time at Stagecoach and Boulder (the two Nevada bases) so pretty much know the entire mountain now. Including most of the tree runs out and about.

So - only about five weeks left of the season..... must start making plans for what happens next!
