The aspen feast was nothing short of amazing. 5 people together, away from their families, constructed a great meal. Turkey, taters, stuffing, veggies, corn casserole, blueberry muffins (a tradition in my family), wine/beer, bacon, and pumpkin pie made by yours
truly. All delicious creations.
I could not help but to think about all the people and families who are not as fortunate. To be able to celebrate with such bountiful food and family/friends is a wonderful gift. how lucky we are. Thanksgiving Day also marked opening day for one of four mountains,
Snowmass Mountain. Very little snow fall has been seen in the valley, pushing the Ski Company to rev up the snow guns. The following day Aspen Mountain opened a bit of terrain for skiers and snowboarders to get their feet wet; I was definitely in attendance. Hopefully much snow is in the future forecast. Until then i will enjoy what snow we have. This Saturday is the first annual 'pray for snow ceremony' at the base of aspen mountain... perhaps i should go help the cause.
