Hello everyone,
I've been in Sun Valley about 3 weeks now and it has been wonderful.This is a great resort.Although there has not been an awful lot of natural snow,the conditions have been great.They have made plenty of snow on the trails and groomed it beautifully.The off piste skiing could be better,but I can live quite happily without it.What has been a delightful change from back East(especially this season) has been the weather. Seventy five percent of the days have been sunny and the daytime temperatures have been in the 20s and low 30s.There has only been one day when I have put on all the layers I normally wear at Sugarloaf all winter!I haven't been skiing on flat light days,to spare my back.Instead I have gone to the Y which is a wonderful facility.One need not ski at all to keep busy here.There are all kinds of things going on-lots of movies,lectures,concerts,theater,opera,coffee shops,art galleries,libraries-and on and on!
My apartment has worked out really well.It is right downtown,but quiet.There is a great market directly across the street,several restaurants close enough that I can go without putting on a coat and a free shuttle bus one block away that will take me anywhere I need to go.The RV has been parked at a storage facility in Hailey,about 7 miles away, for free.I checked it last week and it was fine-even started right up.
Basically all I can say is: LIFE is GOOD. I have attached some photos for your perusal.Hope this finds you well.I sure am. Todd

open road
I have just started on a new adventure,traveling the open road in an old(1984,23foot) Winnebago motorhome.I found it for sale on the side of the road in Maine last summer.It only had 37,000 miles on it.I bought it for a song and completely re-habilitated it(new carpet,upholstery,satellite TV,mechanical upgrade,etc)I am currently in Florida,plan to head west to see friends in Alabama and Texas,then head north to Sun Valley, Idaho for a couple of months of skiing.After that,I plan to take the RV to Bend,Oregon to leave it with my brother until next summer,when I plan to return and head to Alaska... full info
