A couple months back I purchased a Groupon for a swanky hotel in Vail, so Melissa and I headed up this past weekend to use it. The hotel was really nice and situated at the western base of the ski area. It even had its own lift so you didn't have to shuttle to the main village, but since Melissa can't ski this season I thought it wouldn't be very nice or fair to ditch her at the hotel and ski. Instead, we had a nice relaxing night watching the Red Wings and Lions each fail in their respective games at a local sports bar.
I woke up a very hungry man the next morning and when we got to breakfast I put in some serious work at the buffet. The waiter even made mention of how much I had already eaten when Melissa's food arrived. Never underestimate a Dutchman at a buffet, especially a hungry one.
Our original plan was to take advantage of the recent high-country snow and do some snowshoeing, but since not a single town in Summit County was supposed to get warmer than 8 degrees we did some Christmas shopping instead. The biggest shocker about this little trip was that despite bringing both cameras... I didn't take any pictures. Matter of fact, the cameras never even made it out of the car. Fortunately I took at least one on my phone.
