Sweet Saturday

We did it. Woke up at 4 am to watch Marco race in Val Gardena and boy was it worth it. He was part of a historic day for the US Mens Team...5 US guys in the top 10!! And Marco got 4th!!! Not a bad weekend for him at all! Nice work Marco!

Article on today's race, right here.

Two of Marco's biggest fans watching the races live at 4am,
Saturday morning. We must be crazy.

On another historic note, we were able to get a little piece of history too...the new tram opened today at Jackson Hole and we took a couple smooth rides to the top with AC/DC blaring and lots of hoots and hollers. They have been working on getting it up for 2 years and sunk over $31 million into the massive project. This new tram is much bigger and faster than the old one, similar to the box that Squaw has now. It was a fun, super super cold day, with temps close to -30 degrees with wind chill. It was one of those days where you had to keep a watch on your friends faces for white cheeks, ears and noses which were a frequent occurrence.

And there it is...the new tram, so exciting!!
