We headed to the mountain on Sunday to eek out the last bit of winter break. The sun was shining and we had a voucher for a pass (thanks, Barkers!) from last year. Greg and I rotated on staying in the lodge with Eli. It's tough not to be able to ride with Greg, but riding alone is better than not riding. Ski Bowl lodge is awesome for kids - it's small and quiet. Plus, hot dogs and fries are hot and cheap.
On the drive home, we stopped by this little cabin in the woods that we've been looking at online. We fantasize about having a cabin so that we could be closer to the mountain. When we pulled up, it looked vacant so we peeked in the windows while Eli slept in the car. To our surprise, there was somebody in there! He saw us and invited us in to take a look around. Turns out, he is the neighbor who takes care of the cabin after renters leave. What a crazy experience. Later, he took us up to his house to meet his wife and see all of his animals - including a bobcat and an ostrich. It was like being in the Twilight Zone, but I love it when a quick stop turns into a great story!
