Sun Peaks February 2014

February 22 2014  - I took a cab to Dean's around 9:30am Saturday morning.  It was lightly snowing. We left for Sun Peaks soon after I arrived.  Originally we planned to stop in Chilliwack for a visit with Dean's Mom, but due to snowy conditions she didn't feel comfortable making the necessary decent to Tim Horton's.  We continued on to Hope and stopped for lunch there.  After a quick bite, Dean and Catherine gave the kids a shot of liquid gravol which put them to sleep till the Kamloops Costco.  Silence is indeed golden.  We Loaded up on bulk everything and arrived in Sun Peaks soon thereafter. The condo was a stones throw from the Stones Throw.  It's 15 minute walk to the village, but close enough to a chair lift to be considered ski in ski out.

We all ate Pizza and Veggies and watched Thomas the Train till the kids went to bed.  Times have changed.

Feb 23 - Woke up and discovered Canada won the gold medal in Olympic hockey.  I think many people decided to stay up and watch the game at 4:00am because the hills were vacant first thing in the morning.  The prior tenants were good enough to leave behind a huge can of coffee so I had ample energy to start my day at 8:30.  I hopped on my board and slid down to the Morrisey express lift.  The other side of the mountain was larger and had better conditions so I spent most of the day there.  Here are a few random shots I took throughout the day

Dean made it out in the afternoon.
