Rudy crossed the rainbow bridge last night after a hard fought battle with bladder cancer. His last moments were spent in my arms with me petting his head telling him he was a good boy. I’m forever changed thanks to his love and companionship. Goodbye, Roo. Daddy loves you. πŸ’”

Remember when you could just wake up and decide to go skiing? Now you’ve got to plan a week or more in advance for parking, deal with heinous traffic, wait for a bus that’s already full, listen to resorts scream at you to carpool, only to arrive and wait in huge lift lines.

Sell even more season passes, take away the parking spots, hire less employees, don’t groom anything, remove half the lifts, don’t even bother making snow, replace F&B with vending machines, tell your customers they’re lucky for the opportunity to even consider going skiing.

We can’t find a way to fund traction enforcement, carpooling, and electric busses in Little Cottonwood Canyon but $729,000,000.00 for a gondola without enough capacity and an annual operating cost of $8,000,000.00 is totally in the budget. Sure will look nice on The Olympics.
