WEDNESDAY
We got up early had a hearty breakfast and headed to the slopes. According to Lea and Bill the conditions were really nice, I on the other hand who has no idea, this was my third time snowboarding, spent the whole day getting up falling on my knees getting up falling on my bottom and repeat.... lets just say I had more bruises than one would want. Bill, Lea and Tim got in a few runs and by half day I was finished my poor little knees couldn't take it anymore. That night we all had dinner and watched DINNER WITH SCHMUCKS it was funny but not as funny as I thought it would be, after the movie we relaxed in the spa and let me tell you it felt so good!!!

THURSDAY
We woke up i realized i wouldn't be able to go snowboarding my knees were so bruised that if i fell once that would be the end, so instead i got my knitting and a good book together and stayed at the lodge while the other 3 went out snowboarding. I watched for a little and was really impressed with some of the boarders and skiers out there on the mountain, maybe some day I'll be that good.
Being our last night and all we decided to go out to dinner down the mountain. We found Sully's Steakhouse. Oh man was that a dinner to remember. picture the 4 of us the only customers at 5pm sitting in this tiny restaurant which had dead animals hanging on every inch of wall and being serenade by an older gentleman singing to country music. We all ordered the house special which was a new york steak and your choice of potato plus a roll where were the veggies you ask? yah so did we! The steak was decent but a little fatty, the rolls were good and the potatoes nothing to die for. Over all the dinner was just ok.
Now the fun begins.... as were are driving up the mountain back to the condo Bill decides to roll the window down (apparently someone farted) as Lea went to roll the window up if slipped off the track and down into the door. GREAT! now were are driving in snow in very cold weather having a 7hour drive awaiting us in the morning and the window won't roll up.
Tim and Bill put plastic and a towel over the open window to keep the elements out for the night. we tried to make the best out of the evening and relax in the spa, just as it started snowing. That was pretty neat probably one of my favorite moments from the trip.

FRIDAY
In the morning we all got up and out the door pretty early. We stopped off at this little garage dropped off the car and walked over to a diner were we grabbed some breakfast, after about 2 hours the car was ready to go again with the window in the up right position. we made the long drive home, over all this vacation was fun and filled with memories we'll have forever.. better or worse i'm so glad the four us were able to take this vacation together and hope it's only the first of many!

We use to go to Brian Head every year and reading this made me miss those trips so much! I am with you though... snowboarding kills me! That is why I stick to the skis. I stay out of the snow better that way :)
looks like a great trip- especially the hot tub in the snow! i want to do that!
