For those of you not from Colorado, opening day could mean a zillion different things: baseball season, a new coffee shop, etc. For me, this time of the year, opening day can only mean one thing: the first ski resort to open for the season!
And it happened TODAY!

| Skiing at Winter Park last year |
Every year, there is a serious battle nationwide to be the first ski resort to open for the new season. Typically, the usually players are A-Basin (Colorado), Loveland (Colorado), and Sunday River (Maine). More often than not, Loveland dominates everyone and opens by the end of October. Last year was a very sad, sad year for me because somehow Sunday River won the race. I still haven’t gotten over that one. Anyway, this year Wolf Creek shocked the hell out of everyone and announced that they would be opening on October 8 — today!! With 3 feet of fresh and natural snow, I’m wishing I was there!!
In other news, I’m having a bit of a dilemna. I keep seeing everyone redesigning their blogs, dropping the blogspot, etc. and I’m thinking I’d like to jump on the bandwagon. Yes, I’m a bandwagon supporter. I’ve said it. But here is my issue: when I named my blog 6 years ago, I wasn’t really thinking ahead. I slapped a name on the blog that seemed apt for my upcoming travels, and I called it good. These days, my blog name is a bit….. generic. And it’s long! I’m just not entirely sure it is quite right for my blog anymore.
So here is my question: should I keep my blog name since I have had it for so long and because it’s kinda already been circulated? (since I am sooooooo popular and everything). Or should I rename it, and move forward with a new name?
And if you pick option 2, any great name suggestions for me??
Keep an eye out for a future “Day in the Life” post! If you live under a rock and haven’t checked out Shut Up and Run’s blog, please do because you will probably die laughing hysterically!
Happy weekend!!!
