You need to come down and Ski hood with the boys. Ski Sat. wheel on Sun. Let me know. I think it sounds fun. Conrad would love to see the boys again. O by the way GREAT PICS. Thanks for sharing

My rig is still stock sans the 2.5" lift and 285 A/T tires, anywhere that I go, you'd be bored bernd! That said, we'd love to hook up with folks again, any rumor of doing another Oregon Coast run?

Incidently, we've been talking about a week-end ski trip...talked about Switzer in Idaho, Bachelor in OR and then I realized when I read your reply that I've never skied Mt. Hood in the 29 years I've lived in the PNW!!!

I just checked out Mt. Hood's Timberline Lodge, the prices were damned reasonable. Have you stayed there before or any of the other lodges around the area? We're looking for something economical but not too cheap (then you have to deal with young adults partying till wee hours!)

TIA for more lodging info via experience if you have any!

How about a free place to stay. My small house is open to you and the family. As for skiing Hood Mt. Hood Meadows is probably the best on mountain. Timberline is nice and the lodge is beautiful. Ski Bowl is the lowest and you could be skiing in the rain. There are also places t stay in Government Camp and Hood River. Meadows web sight Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Resort I believe they have some links for lodging there as well. You could also come by yourself Let the big boys ski for a day. Either way my house is always open to you.

Thank you Bernd. The invitation is very thoughtful. Either way, we need to hook up before our kids forget who each other are.
