Donnie G----Yes, finally the ski hills are open. 2 weeks ago we had no snow, springlike weather, and all the ski hill employees were laid off and sent home. Now winter is finally here, and we have about 8" of snow. All the ski hills are busy making snow, building up their base.---and yes, as you say, "time on my hands". With the BIG slowdown in the automotive sector, my design business is very slow right now.---Brian
