Valentine Ski To Romance Mountain

Sometimes the best part about skiing is when you are done. As Mia Allen said “You appreciate the woodstove, a cup of tea and your book even more upon your return.” It is not as if we didn’t thoroughly enjoy our 2.5 hour ski to the top of Romance Mountain and back down the other side. The views of the Taconic Range and Frost Mountain were not to be missed. It is just that it felt grand returning to Blueberry Hill with a glow of having spent the morning skiing in the woods, feeling mellow after our physical exertion and with a hearty appetite. We consumed Tony Clark’s special heart shaped pastries and tomato and cabbage soup and thought we had done it all. But there were more surprises. Tony invited us to his house to share a bottle of Bordeaux and other delicacies. Barbara presented the first annual Frost Mountain Nordic Romance Mountain t-shirt. We are already planning our ski for next year. Many thanks to Tony for a great day of skiing and good cheer.
