    Sad about the second Kitty, but so much better than her being left to suffer out in the wild. Thank you for helping both kitties!

    Stray Cat Saga

    How soon after a hysterectomy did you snow ski?

    Great that they were able to do laproscopic. Hopefully that makes for an easier recovery for you. I'm jealous of your sabbatical. Hopefully you have a speedy recovery so you can really enjoy your break from working!

    How soon after a hysterectomy did you snow ski?

    I had my hysterectomy surgery early sept 2007 ...6.5 lbs of fibroids removed...one the size of a grapefruit and others oranges and lemons. My incision had to be vertical to get at fibroids that were as high as my diaphragm. I felt pretty great within weeks (stayed out of work for the 8 weeks...

    Coyotes on my Trail!!!!

    So sad about your dog and the kangaroo. Makes me look at them a bit differently. Like many places coyotes are getting a lot of attention in the Boston suburbs. Everyday on my walk I see a new sign about a missing cat...some are surely lost to predators. I've attached a link to some beautiful...

    anyone familiar with Pico?

    I really like Pico. I like Okemo too. They are quite different in some ways. Okemo puts a lot more money into blowing snow and grooming, so is more predictable for conditions...and crowds on weekends. I find it tough to enjoy Okemo on a weekend, even though I know how to avoid the worst of...

    Ski Rack Blonde Moment

    6 - usually means it's good for 6 pairs BUT that assumes when you pair your skis up that the binding facing the roof of the car doesn't touch. This depends a lot on your roof rack and your binding. I have a Yakima 6 and have a standard roof rack on my SUV, so most skis fit. Some bindings...
