Telluride, Colorado
January 24th – 30th, 2016
Today we arrive in Telluride, Colorado and we immediately fell in love with the town. It’s everything I always thought a ski town would be. We checked into the fantastic Inn at Lost Creek which was located in a great spot. One day while walking through the lobby we ended up meeting the star of all stars TOM CRUISE. We spoke to him for a few minutes, and he couldn’t be nicer the only thing that we regret is that we didn’t get a picture with him.
Telluride is a great town for families with kids. Right by our hotel, they have an ice skating rink and a lot of restaurants and shopping which is one of my favorite things to do 🙂
John and I skied every day it was great skiing, and at the end of skiing we would go to the mid-mountain bar and have a beer with the sun shining on us. A great time was had!

Today we drove from Jackson Hole to Park City, Utah and we met up with our friends Nano and Mariya they flew in from Washington State.

There was only one day I skied, and it was at Deer Valley which was nice because it’s a ski only mountain no snowboarders.

Montauk – The End of Long Island
Montauk is my absolute favorite place to visit. I can’t explain it but I just feel so great whenever we are there. Most people hear about the Hamptons but this is my go-to place. Unfortunately, it has become a popular vacation spot and it’s much busier.
