- 11/10/12 07:35 AM
With Vail Mountain's opening day less than one week away, we are all pretty excited about the ribbon cutting ceremony of Vail’s new gondola “One.” All summer long, we’ve watched as they took out the old Vista Bahn chair lift in the heart of Vail Village.

We awoke today to a fresh blanket of snow in Vail and Beaver Creek, and everyone has smiles on their faces.

Here is the view from the back patio at my home in Edwards, CO:

I have signed up for Eagle County Alerts on my phone, and am texted any time there are hazardous road conditions. This is a great tool to have if you’ll be traveling in the high country this winter. Eagle County recently sent out this message with some … (3 comments)
Ok, for those of you here who’ve followed my Sunday blogs regarding my self-inflicting pain of being a Broncos fan (and long-time Vikings fan too) must rejoice with me here this Monday morning…. TEBOW got us the win! And that’s when I nearly passed out, folks. After coming so close last time Tebow took to the field as the Broncos QB, yesterday he came through with a surprising come-back win against the Miami Dolphins. Did it help that he was playing an away game in a stadium where the fans of the other team were rooting for him? Who … (7 comments)
