Holiday Trip

December 27, 2006 - January 2, 2007

Enjoy the mountains during the holidays!

Wonderful snow, wonderful location, wonderful skiing, wonderful places to eat, play and go and best of all WONDERFUL trip participants!

The Copper Mountain trip worked well for everyone including flights and times and weather. All 40 trip participants found something to their liking. There were a couple of injuries and one family dealt with illness but still found some fun.

Copper Mountain probably has one of the best New Year shows anywhere from torch skiing to stunt skiers and boarders to awesome fireworks over the gorgeous moonlit snow covered slopes. We danced and partied like it was 1999! Good friends the Petersons, the Williams, the Flickingers, and the Budde gang from Vero were great fun, with kids to share their enthusiasm. We had the Barry Foursome from Tampa/Orlando as new to our club, and Todd has the right idea for a liquor store run...have cooler will travel...a true Seminole! Danielle & James Wack, Shepp Lawrence, and Clair & Laird Quenzler did not get enough so they stayed on to make the rest of us envious. The Peters had fun too in spite of losing the company of their friends, the Weissbachs at the last minute. Roddy & Beth Kring skied until someone pulled them off the slopes everyday; true pros. Two new folks to the club, Frank Repass (from Cocoa) and Deborah Fallon (from
California) enjoyed skiing, snowshoeing and a bit of snowplowing on Frank’s part. Bobby Colella & Krystal Davis were the “kids” amoung us and loved playing in the snow, Krystal’s first, plus fitting in plenty of skiing. “Crazy Bill Daily skied every second he could and did at least wear his long pants!!!! Sunny & Nicole Heck tried to keep up. The Hamm’s will have to try this one again since the flu bug seemed to haunt them on this trip, somehow they were always smiling between times! Rick Schmid & Cindy Urban met in snow country and enjoyed the slopes and shopping. Chris Phillips & Leslie Kinney stayed busy shopping as well. And the Lawrence gang followed Laird & Clair Quenzler around, skiing and boarding between dancing with Mo, entertaining the group, snowshoeing, skating and just having a great escape! We’ll go back to Copper Mountain anytime! Sue Nesbitt
