Greetings from Park City

There is a ton of snow here, and our first day yesterday was typical Utah sunshine. The drifts in town are taller then me! Everyone is skiing well too, so that is good. In fact, Park City was pretty dead yesterday. Usually it is much more crowded this weekend.

We also made it out here reasonably well. I was happy not to have to spend the night on the floor of an airport like last year. The crowd on our flight was on the annoying side though. I was worried we would have to abort takeoff. This is the first time I have seen somebody get out of their seat when the plane was beginning to take off. I kid you not. I was on a plane once where we landed with some guy in the bathroom, and he had the pilot bitching him out when we deplaned. We ended up in the last row where your seats do not recline. Then the dude in front of Mike laid all the way back. Mike decided to be a little annoying in response.

What is the deal with people standing right next to the luggage belt so you have to hit them with your bag when you get it? Is it a NY crowd sort of thing? That just drives me nuts, especially in an airport when people are bringing a ton of large bags and gear. I wanted to unleash a little passive-aggressive behavior.

It is all worth it to have a few days of winter!
