A good day to play hooky

So says the boss man.

Gazette editor Jeff Thomas sends this from a few thousand feet up:

I'm playing hooky, squeezing the last ride of the season out of my Four-Pass. The view from Copper Mountain's Center Village is wintry. The trees are frosted, the sky is silvery, and a light snbow is falling. Temps are in the 30s. Perfect.
Meanwhile, they're playing baseball in Colorado Springs. Does life in Colorado get any better? As Brian Regan would say, I submit that it does not.
If you're even thinking about getting a last run this season, it sure looks like there's good skiing left!

If the boss says it, it must be true. So get out there!
