ELLIE: Hey, Mister Waffles! Glogirly is coming home today!
WAFFLES: It’s about time! She’s been gone for elebenty-billion days.
ELLIE: She’s only been gone a week, Mr. Waffles. Isn’t that like seven days?
WAFFLES: That’s what I said. Elebenty-billion days.
After a white-knuckle drive through a blizzard and over snowy mountain passes, Glogirly is home again! She and four friends stayed slope side at Aspen Snowmass. They skied for six days and had a blast. The weather was COOOOOLD! But the snow and conditions were gorgeous. There was even a day with fresh tracks through champagne powder. (That’s ski-speak for AMEOWZING)
Though most of the runs Glogirly and her friends skied were blues, there were a couple of black diamonds! One called Showcase and another called Slot.
These are Aspen’s breathtaking Maroon Bells as seen from the top of Snowmass at 11,325 feet.

First tracks morning. WOW!

Time for unpacking, laundry, and NAPS!
