Saturday in the Mountains
By JSP
Everyone except JayBee and I have left the cabin to start the day. It is a nice day with part sun and clouds and temperatures in the 40s. Some folks took off for the mountains to get in some skiing and some folks went out to the trails to do some snow shoeing. The wind just kicked up, so maybe it is not such a tranquil day after all. I will probably get out and walk around the neighborhood shortly. I enjoy the relaxation and lounging around, but I start to feel sluggish if I do not get out and move around.
Last night everyone made it to the cabin after 5 PM. We have in total 10 friends hanging out this weekend. We got some groceries and then made a family style spaghetti dinner. The rest of the evening was spent socializing and enjoying each others company. A game of Taboo was played, in which the girls were pitted against the guys. The guys were beaten, but the game was close the whole time.
By the time Taboo was complete, folks were tired and the night started coming to a close. JayBee played a short game of Hearts with Julie, Jason and Cedric. I scanned through the movie King Kong to see the scene where Kong battled three T-Rex dinosaurs. I really did not want to see the whole movie, thus never ordered it via Net-Flix. Christian had it in his DVD collection so I brought it along to satisfy my desire to watch a few of those thrilling scenes.
At the end of the evening JayBee and I settled into our room. We had his EEE PC in the bed and we decided to watch the season premier episode of Battlestar Galactica. This is the last season of the show and we had waited for over a year to see the final season. Aside from the choppy nature of watching a streaming video, the show was entertaining. 4 of the last 5 Cylons have been revealed, and now we wait to find out who the last one is....could it be Starbuck, Baltar, Adama???

Guyse, so very nice to see you. The setting was outstanding, though a bit kitch for this frog, and the food marvelous. I could get used to it. Hoping you had safe travels back and looking forward to seeing you very soon.
