I was surprised to see the sign after the recent busy pow days. The line is definitely a total clusterfuck at times, hope the management addresses this issue next year. Eagle Peak lift morning start...

They had the singles sign up yesterday but the main line wait was only 2 or 3 chairs at the most.

I've had good luck with my full rocker 2011 Gotamas in wet spring snow. Wish they were a bit lighter due to my age.

My favorite is using United miles on Star Alliance, especially with an excursionist perk (free one way) inside a RT or open jaw award ticket. Usually you need to be a Premier member with a United CC...

Don't forget you can use your Chase UR points on revenue airline purchases on their travel portal and still earn airline qualifying and redeemable miles. I always check with Google Flights and see if...

Is there any advantage buying T-Bills thru a brokerage, like Vanguard in a traditional IRA?

Bought a $10K I-bond two days ago @ 6.89%. Worth the gamble, lol.

Live and do water sports in the Gulf of Thailand and snow ski in Japan and NZ! Best of both worlds year-round, even the water will be a comfy 80 degrees! Hire a ladyboy for a maid!

Thanks for your update, info and fantastic photos! Good luck with your flights to GRU!

Awesome thread, thanks for posting. Last May, I flew to Santa Cruz and spent 2 weeks traveling thru Sucre and Potosi. Got to watch an auto rally race that went right in front of hotel in Sucre. It...

Couldn't believe Saban going for a 2 pt conversion twice in a tight game. Had he elected to kick the PAT, the last FG would've been the game winner.

My favorite taco joint is Matt's BBQ Tacos in Portland, out of this world! A must do while in Porkland. The street tacos in old town Puerto Vallarta are also to die for.

Accidently deleted my earlier post while trying to edit. First LP Records were Abbey Road by the Beatles along with the original Bad Company. Then got several Three Dog Night albums because in my...

The craziest airport I've ever experienced was SSG in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. The baggage scanners were broken so they inspected the suitcases by opening them up in front of you and visually...

Here's a suggestion for people with extra cash on hand, park $10K in a Treasury Series I bond, 3.54% earnings (fixed rate plus semi-annual inflation rate), it's subject to federal tax but exempt from...

Congratulations and enjoy your "new" life!

Thanks! And how much money do you recommend for an initial investment on this plan?

You'll find them on the snowmaking guns at Cloudmont Ski and Golf Resort!

How is the process for a short sale, better than foreclosures? Thinking of buying in SW Utah or Las Vegas, when the market hits rock bottom for a retirement home.

Thank you for your detailed lift information, I will definitely try La Parva. Any recommendations on transfers to LP (prefer early as possible) and ski rentals (rocker skis) while staying in the Las...

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread. I will arrive in Santiago in 3 weeks, staying in Las Condes area and hope the conditions improve. Sounds like LaParva has the best conditions...

Thanks for all of the info! What an epic winter in Japan so far. I will be arriving in Niesko on the following weekend, cant wait!

Yes! Cant imagine how more robust the economy would be if a smaller % of income was spent on housing. I think affordable housing will be a hot subject in the next presidential term.

March? You better pray for SNOW, since that is summer time in the southern hemisphere. I admire your early start for winter! :smile: I just booked my flights for the end of this month, skiing the 3...

Yesterday was their last day. Wonder how is the snow cover at Valle Nevado. Thinking of going there tomorrow.

Side note on BA, Mendoza and Santiago taxi drivers, never had a problem either. Only...

Thanks MadPat, wishing you a fabulous trip! For future reference, you can redeem DL skypesos on Aero Arg to USH.

Thanks for all the updates. We will be in Santiago during the 2nd week in Sept. Is Valle the best bet for a day trip? Hope the snow continues....

Screw resort skiing lift passes, buy AT setup and skin up ! I have gotten dirty looks from the Timberline Ski area management while skinning uphill during operating hours, LOL

Maybe Tommy Chong can design and sell backpacks that carry bongs and be reek-proof. Now that type of merchandise might keep him out of jail !
