Snow Making Operations on Downdraft at Killington on December 31st.

Happy New Year from Killington Vermont!

Mary and I spent the evening tending to guests at the inn. This was our 9th New Years Eve at the inn, and it was thankfully uneventful. We had a nice crowd for dinner at our second seating. (A few no shows for the first seating---shame on you!... but so it goes) From our small sample, people were generally up beat about 2007. Of course, the people we spoke to were on a holiday at a ski resort, so the sample demographic was definitely skewed in one direction.

We met a lot of nice people over the holiday week. From past guests that have visited with us many times, to new guests enjoying the inn for the first time. Many of them are headed home as I write this, although we do have a solid week ahead of us.

Mary and I are both looking forward to getting out on the mountain. With the holidays it has been 2 weeks since we have had an opportunity to go skiing. A lot has changed on the mountain in since we were last on the hill, so we intend to partake of the slopes when we can this week.

I would like to thank everyone who has been doing snow dances. The ground around the inn is solidly white.... but Keep Dancing... we still need more snow!
