A day of ups and downs….impassioned plea by Pauls brother for everyone to spend a little time looking around – very sad. Then the funny up situation when I see Glen and Kimberly walk into the lodge…what? Mr Plake is in the house. Pop up and say hi…then JD and I headed off to ski. Nice lookin early, but then windy, nasty, cold and warm and good vis and bad vis and packed wind blown pow with a inch or two of new in places. Ended the day getting a signed t-shirt and poster from Plake, stand around for a while and listen to the banter…checked out the Plake truck/motor home in the B lot – pretty nice. Think I heard him say he'd be up at Hurricane Ridge tomorrow...? Then once again down sad thoughts about Paul. ddk
